Heavy rain lashes Kolkata, alert of more rainfall in next 24 hours
According to the IMD Kolkata Regional Centre, a depression over the Bay of Bengal was responsible for the hour-long downpour and it's likely to cause further moderate to heavy rainfall in Kolkata and its surrounding areas in next 24 hours.
Meanwhile, due to the rainfall, part of the city has been waterlogged and traffic is partly disrupted at several areas, specially in north Kolkata.
