Heavy rains have caused significant flooding in various parts of India, impacting daily life and prompting emergency responses. In Varanasi, the Ganga River's rising levels have submerged Ghats and halted boat operations, with the NDRF and local administration closely monitoring the situation. Similarly, the Godavari River in Nashik saw water levels recede as rainfall subsided, though alerts remain in place for potential further rain. In Jharkhand's East Singhbhum, rising water levels in the Kharkhai and Swarnarekha rivers led to an alert and the deployment of NDRF teams. Coastal security remains robust, and new mandates in Rajasthan require rainwater harvesting systems for all new buildings to address groundwater depletion.
