MITHILA — Bihar faces intensified flood fears as river water levels across the state continue to rise significantly. Persistent rains in Nepal as well as within Bihar have caused multiple rivers to exceed their danger marks. Among these swollen water bodies, the Gandak river has breached its danger level, releasing substantial amounts of water downstream and raising alarms across surrounding territories.
The continuous influx of water has prompted official intervention to protect vulnerable populations. Authorities have already moved residents out of low-lying areas that are exposed to rising waters, and various government departments have been placed on high alert to handle the developing circumstances.
To ensure tight oversight of the escalating flood situation, district magistrates are personally monitoring conditions across all vulnerable regions as river levels remain elevated and the threat persists.
