Bihar Government Monitors Rising River Levels Amid Floods and Embankment Breaches
Bihar faces critical flood challenges as water levels in the Gandak, Ganga, and other rivers rise, breaching embankments in districts including Saran, Gopalganj, and Champaran. The state government, led by Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, is closely monitoring the situation and has deployed multiple rescue teams, including NDRF and SDRF, with support from the Air Force for relief efforts. Despite lower rainfall, river levels remain high, prompting intensified flood-fighting and relief operations to protect affected communities.
