New Delhi: A Day of Protests

It was a dreary day for the capital on Wednesday. Delhi was inundated by the overflowing Yamuna River, torrential rain and several protests. The capital, as a symbol of the Indian government and centre of national politics, is a favourite spot for the hundred who march under banners here.
