in Mumbai, monsoon rains stalled trains, delayed flights and disrupted traffic on Wednesday. forecasters also warned of more wet weather for India's financial capital. Authorities advised people to stay indoors and asked schools and colleges to close for the day. Mumbai has been hit by heavier rain this monsoon, affecting the city's crumbling infrastructure.

Floods in 2005 killed more than 500 people in the city, home to the country's two biggest stock exchanges and headquarters of several major companies.
