Delhi rains: LG holds emergency meeting, officials' leave cancelled

Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena conducted an emergency meeting on Friday to address the severe waterlogging in Delhi following prolonged rainfall. He directed officials to establish an emergency control room and deploy static pumps to manage the waterlogging. Saxena instructed that all senior officers on leave return to duty and that no leave be sanctioned for the next two months. He noted the city's lack of preparedness, citing incomplete drain de-silting and a pending Flood Control Order, and urged immediate action.
