As heavy rain through the night submerged large parts of Delhi this morning, a politician was seen rowing an inflatable boat on a flooded street. It was a show of protest against the "collapsing" infrastructure, Delhi BJP councillor Ravinder Singh Negi said.

Mr Negi, a resident of Vinod Nagar in east Delhi, demonstrated how bad the flooding was in the locality, and blamed the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Delhi.

"...All PWD drains are overflowing. They didn't get it cleaned ahead of Monsoon. This has led to waterlogging...Vinod Nagar is submerged," said the BJP leader, pausing his frantic "rowing" to speak to news agency ANI.
