Owing to continuous rainfall, a number of rivers, including Sutlej, Beas, Ravi, and Ghaggar, have swelled up in Punjab. Villages experience floods when there is a breach in the embankment of these rivers and canals. For example, villages in Jalandhar have flooded due to a breach in the Sutlej River.
On Monday, water entered Punjab Police Academy, Phillaur, in Jalandhar due to overflowing of Sutlej and several villages had to be evacuated. Jalandhar, Kapurthala, Hoshiarpur, and Nawashahr districts recorded several incidents of water accumulation in the villages, highways, and link roads situated on the embankments of Sutlej and Beas and its rivulets. Similarly, in the Patiala district, the overflowing Ghaggar River submerged various villages.
Chandigarh:
Floodwaters have started receding in several places of Punjab and Haryana, battered by heavy downpours earlier this week, and relief work is underway in affected areas in both states, officials said on Saturday.
With the threat of water and vector-borne diseases looming large in flood-affected areas, health department officials have been directed to take appropriate steps to prevent any such outbreak, they said.
The officials also said that medical camps have been set up in flood-hit areas and medicines are being distributed to people.
At least 39 people have died in rain-related incidents in Punjab and Haryana.
According to official data, 19 people have died in rain-related incidents in Punjab while the death count in Haryana stands at 20.
Over 22,000 people have been moved to safety from waterlogged localities in various flood-hit districts of Punjab. In neighboring Haryana, 4,495 people have been evacuated.
Fourteen districts - Patiala, Moga, Ludhiana, Mohali, Jalandhar, Sangrur, Pathankot, Tarn Taran, Ferozepur, Fatehgarh Sahib, Faridkot, Hoshiarpur, Rupnagar, and SBS Nagar - have been affected in Punjab.
In Haryana, the number of districts affected by the recent heavy downpour stands at 13 - Ambala, Fatehabad, Faridabad, Panchkula, Jhajjar, Kurukshetra, Karnal, Kaithal, Panipat, Sonipat, Palwal, Sirsa, and Yamunanagar.
District authorities, along with personnel from the Army, Border Security Force, and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), were involved in the relief operations. They also distributed dry rations, medicines, drinking water, and cattle fodder.
The water level in the Hathnikund barrage in Haryana's Yamunanagar was at 54,012 cusecs at 11 am. The flow rate was significantly lower than Tuesday morning's 3.21 lakh cusecs, the officials added.
However, the overflowing Ghaggar River continues to wreak havoc in Khanauri and Moonak blocks in the Sangrur district, inundating vast tracts in these areas.
