New Delhi – Your One‑Stop Spot for the Latest News and Alerts

Welcome to the New Delhi tag page, where you’ll find the freshest stories that matter to the capital and its surroundings. From court rulings to rain‑related chaos, we pull together the most relevant updates so you don’t have to chase multiple sites.

Legal Headlines Shaping the Capital

The Delhi High Court recently turned down bail for Umar Khalid, Sharjeel Imam and several others in the 2020 riots case under UAPA. The judges said violence disguised as protest isn’t protected speech, and Imam has already moved to the Supreme Court. This decision adds a new twist to a case that has been dragging on for more than five years.

Other legal news may pop up, but the UAPA bail story is a clear reminder that the courts are closely watching political protests in New Delhi. Keep an eye on any follow‑up rulings, especially if the Supreme Court steps in.

Weather, Floods and Travel Chaos in Delhi

Monsoon season is still in full swing, and the city is feeling the squeeze. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a red alert as heavy rain hammered Punjab, Delhi‑NCR, and Uttar Pradesh. Flood‑prone areas in Delhi saw waterlogging, road closures near IGI Airport, and diversions on the Outer Ring Road.

In another update, the Yamuna River rose to 207.44 m, just shy of its 1978 peak. The high water level forced a temporary halt to cremations at Nigambodh Ghat and caused flight delays—273 departures and 73 arrivals were affected. While the IMD later eased the alert to yellow, travelers should still expect occasional disruptions until the rains subside.

When the rain hits, it’s useful to know which neighborhoods are most vulnerable. Low‑lying colonies near the Haryana‑Delhi border have faced drain breaches, prompting evacuations. Keeping a rain‑ready kit and checking local alerts can save you from last‑minute hassles.

Beyond the immediate wet weather, the monsoon’s broader pattern points to continued downpours across 13 states, with a cyclonic circulation over the Bay of Bengal feeding the storm. That means Delhi may still see intermittent heavy showers, so staying updated with IMD warnings is a smart move.
