After Nepal floods, Gandak level dips
Patna reports that the Gandak river's water level is receding, providing relief to residents in northern Bihar after flash floods from Nepal. The Gandak Barrage at Valmikinagar, the northernmost district bordering Nepal, saw a decline in discharge from 1.50 lakh cusecs to 1.04 lakh cusecs. The receding trend was observed, but rainfall in Nepal's Devghat area caused a temporary rise in water levels.
No adverse impacts on embankments have been reported, and authorities remain vigilant, monitoring the situation closely. Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary and other officials have been briefed on the situation, and necessary measures are being taken to ensure safety.
