Meanwhile, Indore settled with traces of rain, while Bhopal remains dry.

These rains can be attributed to the trough running from West Rajasthan to Bay of Bengal across Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Further, with the trough likely to persist, we can expect more moderate rains during the next 24 hours with some places receiving heavy showers as well.
