October 6, 2025—Bari Sadri, a serene town in Rajasthan’s Chittorgarh district, was thrust into turmoil yesterday evening when an intense cloudburst dumped 79 mm of rain in a single hour, unleashing flash floods that turned quiet streets into raging rivers, flooded homes, and swept away two-wheelers. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has linked the deluge to a sudden intensification of a low-pressure trough over East Rajasthan, catching the semi-arid region off-guard and overwhelming its outdated drainage systems.
