Heavy rains continue in Mumbai for 2nd day

Heavy rains continued to lash Mumbai and its neighbouring areas for the second consecutive day on Saturday. Although the rains did not much affect the normal life in the city, at least five persons were injured in rain-related incidents, officials said. The suburban local trains, called the lifeline of Mumbai, remained largely unaffected and were running as per their schedule. However, in view of IMD's heavy rainfall forecast, the Central Railway (CR) cancelled some express or passenger trains, especially those between Mumbai and Pune.
