Water has been flowing above the danger mark, threatening to enter Patna
Swollen waters of river Ganga inundated many places from Buxar to Kahalgaon in Bhagalpur district of Bihar on Friday and threatened to flood the State capital, Patna. Thousands of people have been shifted from flooded areas to relief camps set up by the government. As many as 14 diara (riverine) areas from Maner to Mokama have been completely submerged, forcing people to migrate to safer places with their cattle. All the river banks in the State capital have been flooded. Water has been flowing above the danger mark, threatening to enter Patna. The water level is highest at Digha and Gandhi ghats (banks).More Related News
