It was enough to ruffle some feathers and netizens started expressing their views in the way they know best: by posting about it on social media. After which #DelhiRains started trending on Twitter and the tweets that have been doing the rounds are hilarious.

"We work together as drivers. At around 8 am, my employer called and asked me to check the Minto Bridge area where one of our vehicles was stuck. We reached here and saw that the whole vehicle was submerged. We identified our driver from his cap and t-shirt, and once the body was pulled out, we could confirm that it was Kundan Singh, my co-worker," Alam told ANI.
