What happened (reported flooding and transport disruption)
A photo caption from The Indian Express reports flooding in the Rajouri area linked to heavy rainfall and rising water levels. Water reportedly inundated parts of a road stretch connected to the National Highway, and movement along the road was disrupted.
Background and earlier position (monsoon-linked flood hazard on roads)
The Rajouri road-flood episode can be framed for UPSC as a geography-to-disaster-management chain: heavy rainfall raises local water levels, waterlogging occurs on a road stretch, and transport movement becomes disrupted. A strong UPSC answer uses cause → impact → response, linking physical processes (runoff and drainage limits) to practical road operations during floods.
