Mumbai returns to normality

After heavy downpour and subsequent flooding threw life out of gear on Friday, Mumbai returned to normality on Saturday with train services being restored and water levels receding though most parts of the city continued to receive steady but mild rains.

However, the city braced for more trouble as the Met department has forecast heavy rains in the next 24 hours.

All train services, suburban and long-distance, resumed to the great relief of the commuters.

Ignoring drizzle, men and women streamed to suburban stations around the Metro to head for their offices.
