Actually it is pleasant. The heat of the summer will wear off with the onset of rains and it feels good. That's the case with the plains. In the early days of monsoon when it is still a bit hot, it is fun to get drenched in the rain. Of course, it will be cold showers and cold wind in higher altitudes.
Down south, especially in Kerala and Karnataka around Sahyadri mountains, the concept of monsoon travelling is catching up. It is lush green and beautiful during the monsoon, and the wetness has it's own charm. Seasonal waterfalls and streams come alive in the jungles and rivers run full. It is as if earth has sprung to life with the rains coming down. I personally love going driving, hiking or trekking in this season. To get an idea, see about some of my past monsoon photographs and travel experiences in my blog - trek and driving.
But journey from place A to B could be a bit painful when it is raining, especially if you are taking public transport. Waiting for public transport in rainy day, going around in damp, slushy places can be annoying, but manageable.

The rain season is normally very bad indeed. Yes, you would be able to travel but it would be very uncomfortable indeed. Some train services may be stopped because of flooding. Not an ideal time to travel. I think the rain season has stopped there now but I will leave it to someone from India to comment on that one. I am from UK and visit there quite regularly you see.

India is a large country and the climate differs from place to place. So it really depends on where you are going. In the coastal areas, it can be very humid. In Bangalore, it can be quite pleasant, though chilly.

It is pretty bad to travel during rains - Roads become potholed.Entire place becomes dirty and muddy.Preferable to avoid.

One of my good friends is from there and he says it POURS! It's very humid too. From the way he describes it, I would say it's unbearable.
