Nepal Rivers Create Havoc in North Bihar

EU Announces help for flood in India and Nepal

All the rivers in the region have been in spate due to heavy rains in Nepal and North Bihar for 24 hours. Another small hill coming from Nepal is causing havoc. Many urban areas have also been affected by the floods. The embankments and ring dams of the major rivers of the area are under increased threat. The rains have created havoc in rural areas. More than 50 thousand population of 7 districts have been affected by the floods caused by rain.

The northern embankment of Triveni canal near Dharampur village in Sikta broke, due to which the water is moving rapidly towards the surrounding villages. 2.35 lakh cusecs of water was released from Valmikinagar Barrage. Gandak’s water has penetrated four villages, including the SSB camp in Valmikinagar. Here, the newly constructed culvert of the road connecting Basavariya village of Motihari to the village of Bhohar and Kavaiya etc. broke in the afternoon. This culvert could not withstand the pressure of the Aruna river coming from Nepal.
