Delhi — Despite rumours of Monsoon’s notorious tardiness, the city’s citizens have assembled for an impromptu “Arrival Party” expecting to greet the Monsoon within the next 48 hours.
Clouds take the RSVP seriously!
In a bizarre turn of events, Delhiites have taken to their terraces draped in raincoats and holding their umbrellas, dancing to “Rim Jhim Gire Sawan” in an attempt to summon the Monsoon gods. The grandeur of the celebration could put any Indian wedding to shame, with decorated rooftops and children running about with paper boats, ready to float them in the first puddle they see.
“Cloudy” reception, Moaning about Monsoon’s MIA
The city’s excitement is palpable, but the guest of the hour – the elusive Monsoon – is yet to make an entrance. To everyone’s surprise, satellite images show the dark, veiled clouds aligning over Delhi, seemingly RSVPing to the party invitation. Meanwhile, the local government still seems to be scrambling to get the city’s drains monsoon-ready, and the infamous potholes have been spotted nervously trying to camouflage themselves.
A “Pouring Heart” on “Dry Land”
“It’s like waiting for a celebrity guest”, lamented one local resident, Mr. Chakragupt Sharma, “We heard Monsoon is coming so we prepared, but now it seems like it’s more of an ‘Indian Standard Time’ thing. I even got my brand new umbrella from Amazon. The weather needs to respect my Amazon Prime subscription… this is breach of trust!”
