The first major monsoon downpour on the afternoon of Tuesday, July 7, 2026, brought life to a standstill in Gurugram. The city witnessed road collapses, severe waterlogging, and endless traffic jams, forcing authorities to implement widespread measures to normalize the situation in the National Capital Region.

A critical section of the Delhi-Jaipur National Highway (NH-48) near Narsinghpur subsided, leading to the closure of two lanes. This created a massive traffic bottleneck between Hero Honda Chowk and Kherki Daula Toll Plaza. The Gurugram Police issued a traffic advisory and diverted vehicles to ensure smooth passage and prioritize the safety of commuters traveling from Delhi to Jaipur.

Notably, Tulsí and Vihar lakes, which supply water to Mumbai, started overflowing. In Andheri, a 50-year-old pedestrian was admitted to the ICU at Cooper Hospital after a tree branch fell on him near DJ House on Nagardas Road.

Landslides and Blocked Roads in Hill States

In Uttarakhand, heavy rainfall on Tuesday led to the closure of 32 roads due to debris. Pantnagar recorded the highest rainfall at 107 mm. Meanwhile, in Himachal Pradesh, flash floods in the Rampur subdivision damaged a temporary bridge over the Ganvi Khad river on Wednesday, severing road connectivity to the Kyao and Kut panchayats. In Arunachal Pradesh, monsoon floods and landslides have affected over 94,200 people across 333 villages in 26 districts, with Upper Siang being the worst-hit region.
