A senior official confirmed that the eight sluice gates of the Bansujara dam were fully opened to reduce water pressure. The decision aims to manage the surge caused by the monsoon and to prevent additional flooding downstream. State Congress president Jitu Patwari appealed to party workers to assist those trapped by the rising water, particularly in villages surrounded by floodwaters.
