यकीन नहीं होता कि ये झारखंड की राजधानी रांची तस्वीर है। 651 मीटर की ऊंचाई पर बसा ये शहर ख़ूबसुरत हिल स्टेशन था।

12 घंटे से चल रही बारिश और नदी नालों पर कब्जे और प्लानिंग के अभाव में शहर का ये हाल हुआ है।#ranchirains#Jharkhand pic.twitter.com/trLEJWOnm0— Braj Mohan Singh (@brajjourno) July 30, 2021
Several districts of the state have been receiving heavy rainfall since Friday morning.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a red alert (isolated heavy to extremely heavy rainfall) for almost two-thirds of the 24 districts in the state.
The current spell of rain in the state is due to the low-pressure system that has built up over the Bay of Bengal, Abhishek Anand, director in-charge, meteorological department, Jharkhand, told Hindustan Times.
