Delhi – Latest News, Weather & Updates

Looking for what’s happening in Delhi right now? You’ve come to the right spot. We bring you the most recent weather alerts, housing news, airport disruptions and other city‑wide happenings in a simple, straight‑to‑the‑point way.

Weather Alerts and Rainfall in Delhi

India’s capital has been under a series of rain alerts this week. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a fresh yellow warning as three weather systems converged, bringing heavy showers that lasted for two more days. Streets turned slick, the Yamuna River crept above the 207 m evacuation mark and traffic snarls became the norm.

Fortunately, the situation eased slightly when IMD downgraded the alert to yellow on the weekend. Light rain and occasional thunderstorms are still expected, but the worst of the downpour has passed. Air quality improved to an AQI of 57, offering a breather for residents who were coping with smog and humidity.

If you’re planning to travel, keep an eye on the airport. Severe rain and low visibility forced Delhi’s IGI Airport to divert 14 flights to nearby cities like Lucknow, Bhopal and Chandigarh. Hundreds of passengers faced delays, and one runway stayed closed for upgrades. While the airport is back to normal operations, future flights might still feel the ripple effect of today’s storms.

Housing, Infrastructure and Other Highlights

On the housing front, the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) kicked off registrations for its Premium Housing Scheme 2025. Around 250 ready‑to‑move flats are up for e‑auction, with prices starting at Rs 39 lakh for LIG units and soaring to Rs 2.54 crore for HIG options. Key locations include Vasant Kunj, Dwarka, Jasola, Rohini and Pitampura. If you’re eyeing a new home, now’s the time to register before the October 24 deadline.

Infrastructure-wise, PM Modi recently inaugurated Kartavya Bhavan, a modern, eco‑friendly building that will house several central ministries. The move signals a shift toward more efficient governance and a greener administrative hub in New Delhi.

For those tracking tech and startup vibes, the Delhi tag also covers market chatter like Ola Electric’s volatile stock performance and investor concerns over weak fundamentals. While not directly tied to the city’s weather, it shows how Delhi remains a hub for both traditional and emerging industries.

In short, Delhi’s weather is calming, the housing market is buzzing, and the city’s infrastructure continues to evolve. Stay tuned to this page for real‑time updates and practical tips that help you navigate life in the capital without missing a beat.
