The city’s social media platforms buzzed with complaints from frustrated commuters braving the flood-like conditions. Key hotspots like Tulip Chowk, Malibu Town, Bilaspur Chowk, Mahavir Chowk, Narsinghpur FOB, Rajiv Chowk, Signature Tower, Galleria Market, and IFFCO Chowk were drowning in water, making travel a nightmare. To add spice to the story, let's talk numbers! According to the district administration, Gurugram saw widely varying rainfall levels on September 1, 2025.
