After one and a half hours of heavy rain on Monday afternoon, Gurgaon came to a standstill again.

Following water-logging in several parts of the city similar to what happened on July 28, many places including Hero Honda Chowk, Sohna Road, Manesar, Udyog Vihar, old Gurgaon Road and a few areas in New Gurgaon experienced heavy traffic snarls on Monday.

People returning home from Delhi to Gurgaon reported that traffic was not moving an inch. Even patrolling cars of the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) were stuck in the traffic.

Despite several measures announced by Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar and top police officials after the July 28 traffic gridlock that stretched for several hours overnight, commuters had to again face a harrowing time on Monday.
