Haryana: Life becomes difficult for villagers near river Yamuna in Panipat

With Yamuna flowing close to the danger mark, several villages were flooded leading to crop losses.
In some villages in Yamunanagar district, the flood waters entered houses and buildings.
The administration has deployed boats at various places for people to commute from one village to other and to evacuate them, if the water level rises further, they said.
The water level rose in the wake of continuous rains in catchment areas in Himachal Pradesh.
Khattar sought information on the water level from the deputy commissioners of Yamunanagar, Karnal, Panipat, Sonipat and Palwal, and other officers through video-conferencing. He also reviewed the arrangements made by them, an official spokesperson said here.
