Heavy rains and a surge in the Ganga have flooded homes and submerged roads in the Diyar region of Balua block, Begusarai, leaving many villages isolated.
The Ganga river has risen sharply in the Diyar area of Balua block, Begusarai district, after continuous heavy rainfall, creating a severe flood situation. Water has entered numerous houses and the main thoroughfares are now submerged, cutting off normal movement.
Dozens of villages in the region have lost contact with their administrative centres as roads are underwater and communication lines are disrupted. Residents report that the floodwaters have reached the ground floor of many homes, forcing families to seek higher ground.
Local authorities have issued flood alerts and are coordinating rescue and relief operations. Teams are monitoring the water level continuously and are prepared to deploy boats and emergency supplies as the situation evolves.
Meteorological departments have warned that the heavy rains are likely to continue in the coming days, which could further aggravate the flooding and delay restoration of road connectivity.
