JAMSHEDPUR – Continuous rainfall has caused Kharkai and Subarnarekha rivers to flow above danger levels, submerging hundreds of homes in low-lying areas across the city.
Around 500 houses have been completely flooded in affected regions. The Bagbera and Jugsalai areas suffered severe inundation. However, district administration responded by deploying NDRF teams immediately.

Water levels continue rising in the Kharkai river basin. Local residents had no time to evacuate safely. Furthermore, the sudden surge caught many families unprepared.
