Mumbai’s Powai lake also started to overflow last night according to a civic official. The southern region of Mumbai received almost 107 mm of rain and the eastern and western suburbs received almost 172mm and 152 mm of a downpour. The serious downpour has also set off another issue as citizens have taken to Twitter calling for repairs of potholes on the roads.
First tell your people to fill that potholes
