NAVI MUMBAI, May 27 -- Incessant rain swept through Navi Mumbai on Monday, flooding low-lying homes, causing severe water-logging in parts of the city, causing vegetables to rot in wholesale markets, and prompting the rescue of students from a waterfall in Kharghar. Heavy rain began late on Sunday night and grew intense on Monday morning, registering an average 100 mm for Navi Mumbai on Monday. Nerul and Belapur were impacted most, with both places recording 200 mm on Monday. Six trees collapsed and water-logging was widespread, including at railway underpasses across the city. In the Raigad Bhavan area of sector 11 in Belapur, cars were almost submerged and water flooded homes and shops in sectors 4, 5 and 6. The APMC market and the area around the MAFCO market were also flooded. Heavy rains and the absence of retailers led to large quantities of vegetables rotting, which had to be thrown away by the traders. Navi Mumbai municipal commissioner Kailas Shinde said the civic body was monitoring the situation via the 1,215 cameras installed across the city. Panvel too was impacted by the heavy pre-monsoon showers. It received over 100mm of rainfall, leading to water-logging in several areas. Low-lying Kalamboli was worst affected, with water flooding homes in several localities. Water logging was reported from Kamothe, Kharghar and Taloja as well. The area near Panvel railway station was flooded, causing problems for commuters. Incomplete road concretization and nallah work was blamed for the water-logging in several areas. In Kharghar, five students from Dharavi-Sion were rescued by local fire station personnel. They were on a picnic at the Pandavkada waterfalls. The spot had, in fact, been shut for safety reasons. In Uran, several homes in Belwadi hamlet of Sarde region were damaged, while the tin roofs of over 30 houses in Kalambusre village were blown away due to heavy winds....
