Intense monsoon rains brought normal life to a standstill on Monday in several parts of eastern and central Rajasthan, flooding out roads, rail tracks, low-lying residential areas and even hospitals. More showers are expected to lash around a dozen districts on Tuesday as well. A seven-year-old boy was swept away in the gushing waters of an overflowing drain in the Murlipura area in state capital Jaipur, where several areas reeled from waterlogging.
