Heavy rains waterlogged several areas of the national capital including some parts of the Indira Gandhi International Airport on Saturday, 11 September.

The arrival area of Terminal 3 was waterlogged for "half an hour" before it was cleared, reported IANS.

However, flight operations continued unhindered at the airport.

"Our team was immediately aligned to look into it and the issue has been resolved," Delhi Airport tweeted.
