Heavy rain left the Pusa‑Muzaffarpur road at Darha Bazaar Chowk under two‑to‑three feet of water, and deep potholes forced several vehicles to overturn.
The stretch of the Pusa‑Muzaffarpur highway that passes through Darha Bazaar Chowk in Muzaffarpur has been submerged in water up to two to three feet following recent heavy rains. The standing water has combined with a series of deep potholes, turning the once‑busy junction into a hazardous zone.
Commuters reported that the water‑logged road and the jagged potholes caused several vehicles to lose control and overturn, creating a scene of chaos and prompting immediate traffic disruptions. Motorists were forced to abandon their vehicles or seek alternative routes as the situation worsened.
Local residents and daily commuters have appealed to municipal authorities for urgent repair work and proper drainage to prevent further incidents. The incident underscores the pressing need for infrastructure maintenance in flood‑prone areas of Bihar.
