The Fire and Emergency Services team rescued people who were trapped in their homes.

Schools and colleges were closed on Saturday, and Anganwadis were closed until July 27.

Many trees and branches fell, causing traffic chaos.

Shop owners in a commercial complex complained about the lack of help from authorities, leading to significant losses.
