If you are not part of relief work please stay indoors. People crowding bridges to see flood sights are a nuisance. Stay home. #TNflood

A third spell of heavy rains has completely battered Chennai and various parts of Tamil Nadu. Many parts of Chennai and its suburbs are flooded, including the airport. Flight operations have been indefinitely suspended.
While some are donating money to those affected, many like Siddharth have taken to the streets of Tamil Nadu to help out those stuck in the floods.
