Incident Report Description

Mehar taluka is also under threat because of two 40-foot wide breaches at MNV drain between Seelara and Mado villages which have inundated about 100 villages.

The water released from a breach in Tori bund has entered Mehar, putting pressure on Dhamraho Wah.

The local administration and irrigation officials in the presence of PPP leaders made three artificial cuts (breaches) at Garhi Mori to save Mehar town and divert the floodwater towards Supro embankment.
