Heavy Rain Causes Flooding in Punjab’s Pathankot, Kapurthala, & Gurdaspur Districts

In Punjab, due to heavy rain in Pathankot for the last couple of days, a part Pathankot-Dalhousie-Chamba national highway has been washed away. Many parts of the city have also been flooded with rainwater, causing problems to commuters.
 
 
In Kapurthala, rising water in the Beas River due to continuous rain in the mountains has breached a temporary bundh leading to inundation of farmland and over a dozen villages in Sultanpur Lodhi area. Same situation is prevailing in parts of the border district Gurdaspur as well. Rain is still continuing since morning some parts of the state.
