Flash floods and heavy rain in the northern hill areas of Mianwali caused significant damage to the Chapri Bridge, cutting off road links between Chapri and nearby towns. The Chapri-Kot Chandana Road and the Chapri-Kamar Mashani Road, both critical routes, were severely affected. Additionally, the embankment near Kamar Mashani Thal was breached, leading to flooding of farmland and damage to crops like millet and maize.
Local residents and farmers have long expressed concerns about the condition of the bridge and flood channels, which local authorities failed to address in a timely manner. Residents are now demanding immediate action to strengthen infrastructure and prevent future flooding.
