[ad_1]

Ghagar River: The situation is looking normal in the flood affected areas of Punjab, but after the heavy rain in the hills of Himachal, the water level of river Ghaggar has started to rise once again. Water has risen in Ghaggar in Haryana’s Panchkula district. Leaving Panchkula, Ghaggar enters Punjab via Mohali and then passes through Patiala, Sangrur, Mansa districts. An alert has been issued in adjoining areas of Patiala, Mansa and other districts after the water level of Ghaggar river rose in Panchkula. Apart from the rescue teams, the administrations of the respective districts have also started preparations so that the situation does not become the same as before.

On the other hand, the water level of Bhakra dam has crossed 1651 feet due to rising water in Sutlej and other rivers after heavy rains in Himachal. Bhakra Dam’s danger level is 1680 feet and the current water level is 29 feet below it. However, the water level of the dam has crossed 6 feet above the flood gate level.

Also, the water level of the Nangal Dam under the Sutlej River below Bhakra reached 1151 feet on Saturday and is just 3 feet below the danger level. After today’s heavy rain in Himachal, if more water is released from Bhakra Dam in case of increased water inflow, the water level of Nangal Dam may touch the danger level. Because of this, the SDM of Nangal has issued an alert that if more water is released from the Bhakra Dam, flood-like conditions may arise in the low-lying areas around the Sutlej River.

On the other hand, the Dhusi dam on the Sutlej river broke in Ferozepur on Saturday. After this, the water started spreading in the surrounding areas. Along with this, two schools under Sardulgarh Government Senior Secondary School Khera Khurd and Government Elementary School Khera Khurd have been declared as holiday till July 24.
