The swollen river breached the dam at five points in distance of some meters and gushed to the local settlement, inundating it entirely.
Likewise, the river water has also entered the other nearby settlements forcing the people out of their home.
It is learnt that most of those displaced by the floods are taking shelter at their relatives' home in India. RSS
