IMD on Thursday also informed that the southwest monsoon -- which gave highly uneven rainfall this year -- has withdrawn from Delhi today. 

"The southwest monsoon has withdrawn from Punjab; some parts of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, west Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan and entire Delhi," India Meteorological Department said.
