On Monday, heavy rains lashed India's Mumbai, the capital of the state of Maharashtra, wreaking havoc across the city. The civic body declared a day off for all schools and colleges under a red alert.
Streets were waterlogged, and local commutes ground to a halt as residents navigated flooded roads. With public transport slowed, businesses and entrepreneurs adapted plans on the fly, while digital nomads and travelers in the city found themselves reassessing itineraries.
For a bustling metropolis, monsoon downpours are a seasonal reminder of both nature's power and the need for resilient urban planning. From entrepreneurs to thought leaders, Mumbai's experience highlights the importance of preparedness in a changing world.
