Excessive rainfall trigger flooding in numerous areas of Delhi, disrupting life and order throughout the city. The rapid downpour lead to flash floods, exacerbating the situation. Additionally, incessant rains cause the water levels of the Yamuna river to surpass the safety threshold, overwhelming the city's drainage system.

Consequently, many residents are compelled to evacuate their waterlogged homes and seek refuge in temporary shelters. The floods that struck Delhi in July 2023, along with the series of unprecedented weather events worldwide over the past decade, underscore the detrimental effects of climate change.
