Authorities have issued an urgent flood alert in parts of Jammu after the Ravi River overflowed due to heavy discharge from the Madhopur Barrage, surpassing 100,000 cusecs and continuing to rise. This has led to severe flooding in multiple low-lying villages, prompting warnings and heightened alertness across the region. Several villages, including Bagthali, Massos Pur, Keerian Gandial, Barni, Dhanna, Dhanore, Karyali, and adjacent areas have been inundated, with local administrations urging residents to take all necessary safety precautions and prepare for possible evacuation.
