The first rain of this year's monsoon season in Mumbai also forced authorities to shut four subways and forcing motorists to abandon their vehicles on roads.

Train services between Kurla and CSMT were suspended as the water was flowing over tracks between Kurla and Sion stations, officials said.

The heavy rainfall also caused traffic snarls in different parts of the city. Mumbai has been receiving rainfall since Tuesday night. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) recorded rainfall in Santacruz at 50.4 mm and in Colaba at 65.4 mm.
