There has been a continuous downpour at Bandra railway station on the Western Railway line in Mumbai leading to many Mumbaikars ducking and looking for cover to miss the rain.

As Mumbai's office-goers got off the railway station, they were met with a crowd, who hadn't brought along their umbrellas with them, near the exit of the railway station, creating chaos.

People had to walk through ankle-length water as early as 8:30 am to board their auto-rickshaw. While commuters have to usually wait for rickshaws, the morning saw people easily get their transport. However, as more people made their way towards the office areas including BKC, they had to wait as long as 40 minutes.

Amid ongoing travel woes and auto-rickshaw chaos at the railway station, people were seen running helter-skelter to avoid the flooded areas outside the station.

People sit in the auto-rickshaw but unfortunately have to deal with surrounding rickshaws while sitting in the fourth seat as they splash water due to rash riding.
