In the twin cities of Gurgaon and Noida, heavy rain persisted through the afternoon, with recorded totals of 75.6 mm in Palam and 32.6 mm at Safdarjung. The deluge disrupted air traffic, leading to the diversion of nine flights at Indira Gandhi International Airport between 3:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. Airline operators cited low visibility and soggy runways as primary reasons for the schedule changes.
