Overflow Of Vishwamitri River

Vadodara experienced severe flooding in many low-lying areas after the Vishwamitri River overflowed, inundating residential neighbourhoods, buildings, roads, and vehicles. Due to the floods, over 3,000 people in and around Vadodara were relocated to safer locations by the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), as per News 18.
