‏آج لاہوریوں کو سمجھ آ گئی ہوگی کہ آخر چھوٹے میاں صاب نے گلیوں اور سڑکوں میں گھومنے والی فورس کا نام 'ڈولفن' فورس ہی کیوں رکھا تھا.

So much water wasted, if only we had visionary leadership that would have constructed proper drainage and reservoirs for storage, then Pakistan would not have been in the top most countries which are about to run dry.

Too much over reaction here.
All systems including drainage are built for average precipitation plus a safety margin of 1.5 to 2 .
To build a system with major over capacity , for a couple of days of heavy rains is not done anywhere.
Only points to be considered are -
Are the major and minor drains clean ?
Are the surface drain points open and not choked ?
Just evaluate the time taken for the water levels to reduce to acceptable levels.
Ofcourse excess rains do damage roads everywhere , proper gradient has to be given to prevent water accumulation.

I live in KL, a city that receives huge rainfall 24/7/365. And not once have I seen anything as such not only in the city center but far flung areas too. It's safe to say KL beats Paris when it comes to drainage.
