Flood havoc in Bihar: Over 4.8 million people affected across 15 districts, relief operations underway

Floods have taken a severe toll in Bihar, disrupting normal life across 15 districts of the state. According to recent reports, the number of people affected by the floods has crossed the 4.8 million mark. The administration and the disaster management department are continuously monitoring the situation.

The water levels of several major rivers in the state remain above the danger mark, causing water to inundate low-lying areas. Although a slight decline in water levels has been recorded in some places, the danger has not yet fully subsided.

NDRF and SDRF teams have been deployed in the affected districts for relief and rescue operations. These teams are working to evacuate stranded people to safer locations and provide them with essential supplies.

Due to the floods, many people have been forced to leave their homes and take shelter in higher areas or relief camps. The administration has issued instructions to remain vigilant in the affected regions and has appealed to the public to stay safe.

Agricultural land and infrastructure have also suffered significant damage due to the floods. Local officials are currently assessing the losses to ensure that appropriate assistance can be provided to the affected families.

The state government has assured all possible help to those affected by the floods. Arrangements for food, medicine, and other necessary facilities are being made at the relief camps.

In view of the weather conditions and river water levels in the coming days, the administration has intensified its preparations. People have been advised to stay away from waterlogged areas and follow official instructions.
