Continuous heavy rain over the past two days in Haryana’s Ambala district has led to severe waterlogging in many parts of the city, including residential areas. People living in Ambala’s Cloth Market, Nadi Mohalla, and nearby localities are facing great inconvenience and damage due to flooding.


A local resident said the rains since Monday had left water standing on the streets, making potholes invisible and dangerous for two-wheeler riders.

 

“During periods of waterlogging, minor injuries are common. Earlier, water used to drain away quickly, but now homes are also being affected, with water entering residential premises,” the resident shared.

 

Another resident said all his household belongings had been damaged by the floodwaters, leaving him in deep trouble.

 

Similarly, a woman shopkeeper said she had never seen such flooding before. Her shop has remained waterlogged since September 1, and nearby areas are facing the same hardship.

 

Residents of Ambala city continue to struggle with the difficulties caused by the persistent waterlogging.

 

Meanwhile, with heavy rainfall continuing in Gurugram, District Magistrate Ajay Kumar, who is also Chairperson of the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA), issued an advisory.

 

The advisory stated: “In view of the forecast, all corporate offices and private institutions in the district are advised to guide their employees to work from home; and all schools in the district are advised to conduct online classes on 02-09-2025.”

 

On X, Gurugram Deputy Commissioner shared: “Gurugram received more than 100 mm of rainfall on Monday between 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM, and the Weather Department issued an Orange Alert on 2nd September 2025 - heavy to very-heavy rainfall expected.”


"The district administration appeals to the public to exercise caution, avoid unnecessary travel, and follow all official instructions in view of the prevailing weather conditions", the post read.


Deputy Commissioner Ajay Kumar, along with Police Commissioner Vikas Kumar Arora, visited the Control Room at the CP Office late on Monday to review the situation and check traffic and waterlogging points.


On X, Gurugram DC also wrote: “District Administration & Gurugram Police are working round-the-clock to ensure the safety and convenience of Gurugram residents.”
