NEW DELHI, Jul 4, 2006 (Xinhua via COMTEX) -- Water seeped into homes, roads and train tracks got submerged, public transport was crippled and thousands trudged in knee deep water as Mumbai, India's financial and movie capital, drowned Tuesday after days of heavy showers in a virtual repeat of last year's monsoon disaster.
To deal with the chaotic situation, the city's police authorities urged Mumbai's 14 million people to stay indoors. The appeal was promptly heeded, partly because even those who tried to venture out in their vehicles returned home frustrated after finding no trace of many of the roads.
In some areas, the authorities cut off electricity supply to prevent short circuits.
The worst scenes were witnessed in Kalina, where rainwater whose color turned greenish after passing through gutters and sewers entered scores of homes in a torrent, submerging furniture, refrigerators and everything else.
"This is what happened last year, and this is what is happening again," Indo-Asian News Service quoted a young resident as saying.
Last year, the waters entered even the first floor homes at Kalina, located close to Mumbai's airport.
Five people were reportedly killed Monday in and around this megalopolis. The city received 131.48 mm rain in the western suburbs, 160.5 mm in the eastern suburbs and 127.3 mm in the city.
Schools were closed in Mumbai Tuesday and train services stalled as rains continued unabated for the fourth consecutive day.
The rail service - the city's lifeline - was on track till about 9:30 a.m. (0400 GMT). Then the central railway line got waterlogged.
And with no buses or taxis, the thousands who would have traveled by trains had no choice but to walk - through flooded streets.
