Flood Threat Looms Over Jajpur-Bhadrak Region

Heavy rainfall has triggered concerns among officials in Odisha’s Jajpur and Bhadrak districts about a possible flood wave. The two districts, which lie along the banks of the Mahanadi and its tributaries, have seen rising water levels in recent days. Local authorities have issued advisories for residents to monitor weather updates and avoid low‑lying areas. Emergency services are on standby to respond to any sudden inundation. The warning comes as the monsoon season continues to bring intense downpours across the state.
