Severe floods are currently ravaging northern India, causing havoc in the region. Regrettably, floodwaters have also reached the outer walls of the Taj Mahal, inundating the garden behind the 17th-century white marble mausoleum. This is the first time such flooding, originating from the adjacent Yamuna River, has occurred in 45 years, with the previous one happening in 1978.
