Rescue operations are on in several districts of Maharashtra after relentless rain caused flooding & huge property damage across the Konkan region. Visuals of waterlogged streets, submerged cars and struggling people emerged from the state as the downpour continued. Incessant rain has ravaged the Konkan region for several days causing major rivers in Ratnagiri and Raigad districts to overflow above the danger levels. Several long-distance trains have been stopped, cancelled or rescheduled on the Konkan Railway route. Around 6,000 passengers were stranded in trains which were regulated at various stations on the Konkan Railway route, reported NDTV. Many areas of Ratnagiri district have been severely affected with Chiplun bearing the brunt of the rain. Rescue operations are on in flooded Chiplun, around 240 km from Mumbai, and is possibly the worst affected in the state.  Situation is grim in Khed and Mahad as well where rescue operations are on.
