Flood waters receding in Haryana

Special Correspondent

CHANDIGARH: The flood situation in Haryana is under control, said Financial Commissioner and Principal Secretary (Revenue) Naresh Gulati here on Tuesday.

“Water is receding from the low-lying agricultural fields and round-the-clock vigil is being maintained to avoid any damage due to floods,” he said.

The Right Side Longitudinal Downstream Embankment (RSLDE) on the downstream of Tajewala Head Works had been damaged for about a length of 4,000 feet, he said, adding that the damage was being controlled by constructing a spur on the bund and constructing a ring bund.

Flood water has receded from populated areas of Yamunanagar district. The “peak flood water'' had also passed Panipat and Sonepat districts.

Due to heavy rains in Mewat and surrounding areas, water has entered agricultural fields of some villages of Nuh tehsil.
