Heavy rains lash in Rajasthan

Jaipur: Around 30 people were rescued in Pali and Jalore districts and a government hospital in Ajmer was inundated as there was no let-up in rains in Rajasthan, officials said on Monday.

Parts of Rajasthan have been pounded by heavy to extremely heavy rainfall triggered by a depression, a remnant of Cyclone



Biparjoy which made landfall in neighbouring Gujarat on June 15 and left behind a trail of destruction.

The depression has now moved towards eastern parts of the desert from central and western parts, according to meteorological department officials.
