Mumbai schools and colleges closed, IMD declares ‘orange’ alert | Monsoon LIVE updates

Relentless rain brought Mumbai and neighbouring districts to a near standstill

All government, private and civic-run schools and colleges in Mumbai will remain closed on Tuesday (July 7, 2026) in view of the India Meteorological Department’s ‘orange’ alert for heavy rain and gusty winds in the metropolis, officials said.

The monsoon unleashed widespread destruction across India on Monday (July 6, 2026), claiming lives in Maharashtra and Himachal Pradesh, disrupting rail, road and air services, triggering flash floods and landslides in Jammu and Kashmir, and inundating towns in Odisha as authorities in several states stepped up emergency measures. 

Relentless rain brought Mumbai and neighbouring districts to a near standstill. Roads were submerged, trees uprooted, and several incidents of wall and billboard collapses were reported.
