See it in slow motion, an auto moving through the heavy waterlogged streets of Delhi. Rainy season in Delhi is a massive problem as the transportation system faces a trouble unable to move through the streets logged in water. Delhi isn’t always super cold and hot; the city has its fair share of romantic rainy days too. Minus the traffic jams, the brief monsoon in Delhi is nothing short of a celebration – kids are on the streets getting drenched in rain, couples are seen spending time sitting in cafes, friends make plans to reconnect, and families have a good time at popular picnic spots like India Gate. The rains bring a whiff of cold and fresh air with tiny, fat raindrops from the northern hills. It is the perfect time to be in Delhi and do what Delhiites do – smell the wet soil, pick you
