Punjab has been declared a disaster-hit state, with several districts, including Patiala, severely impacted by flooding. This ground report from Kami Khurd village in Patiala shows the extent of the damage after the Ghaggar river’s water levels rose, exacerbated by the opening of dams. Residents are living in drenched houses, with their livestock also affected. To prevent further flooding, villagers are constructing temporary bunds with sandbags. The situation in the low-lying areas appears grim. One resident expressed frustration, stating that official visits have amounted to little more than a "photo opportunity for several of the people who really come here." The community is relying on its own efforts, using sandbags and tarpaulins to protect their homes from the floodwaters. #punjabfloods #patiala #floodalert #disaster #ghaggarriver #punjab #floods #groundreport #indiatoday #floodrelief #kamikhurd #disastermanagement #climateemergency #waterlogging #savepunjab
