WATCH | Flood-like situation in Noida as Hindon river swells, scores of cars submerged
Viral Video: Over 200 cars are seen submerged up to their roofs in an open area in Greater Noida in a shocking video that has gone viral due to a surge in the water level of the Hindon river.
The video, which was recorded at Ecotech-3 in Greater Noida, shows row after row of parked white cars with water inches from their roofs.
On Saturday, as the water level in the Hindon surged, many people were evacuated from their homes near the river. Ecotech and Chhijarsi in Noida Sector 63 were among the affected regions.
In the early hours of Tuesday, Noida and other parts of the National Capital Region had light to moderate rainfall. The Yamuna River was still flowing slightly above the danger mark of 205.33 metres at noon today. At noon, the level was 205.4 metres. The Hindon River is a Yamuna tributary.
"For Delhi, we don't have a significant rainfall warning but we can continue to expect high moisture and high temperature. Delhi also may get light to moderate rain. We don't have any warning for Delhi but some rain will start from the night of July 25," RK Jenamani, a scientist from the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.
Maharashtra, Haryana, Chandigarh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand have all issued warnings from the IMD. Heavy to very heavy rainfall is expected to continue in the Saurashtra-Kutch area, Madhya Maharashtra, Goa, and coastal Karnataka, according to the weather forecast. The flood situation in Gujarat is expected to improve since rainfall has decreased in the state during the last 24 hours, according to the report.
