Traffic is almost clear and people can now travel by road, the Mumbai Police said this morning. Train services have been restored on most lines and though local trains, Mumbai's lifeline, are running behind schedule, thousands of people who were stuck all night at offices are now returning home. There was little rain overnight, but the weather office has said there could be heavy rain in some places later today. Mumbai was crippled on Tuesday by its heaviest rain in 12 years, recording almost 300 mm in some parts. Schools and colleges are closed today and Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis advised citizens in a tweet last night to stay home unless there is an emergency. (Audio in Hindi)
