Ganga water level breaches 'highest flood mark' at Patna's Gandhi Ghat amid heavy rain

Ganga water level at Patna's Gandhi Ghat rose 10 cm, exceeding the highest flood level. This rise poses inundation risks for low-lying areas in the state capital. Several Bihar rivers are flowing above danger marks due to heavy rainfall. Chief Minister Choudhary conducted an aerial survey of affected regions on Friday. Officials are monitoring vulnerable areas and embankments to prevent breaches.
