Chennai, Dec 6 (IBNS): As the flood condition eased a bit in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, commercial flights are resuming operations from the Chennai airport on Sunday.
The Chennai airport was shut on Tuesday evening due to excessive water-logging. 
 
However, parts of the city are once again receiving rainfall on Sunday, reports said.
 
Train services also resumed in the morning after being halted for four days.
 
Home Minister Rajnath Singh had, on Thursday, said that there had been 269 deaths in Tamil Nadu since the heavy rain and flooding began last month. More than 10,000 people have been rescued so far by the Army and the National Disaster Response Force.
 
Schools, colleges and offices in Chennai have been forced to close and exams have been postponed. Telecom companies have offered free talk-time to their customers. Mobile phone services have been partially restored.
 
Electricity has also been restored in some parts of the state.
