Army and NDRF Act to Reinforce Bundh as Sutlej Threatens Sasrali

The Sutlej river poses a significant flood threat to the village of Sasrali in Ludhiana, prompting immediate action from the Indian Army, NDRF, and local authorities to reinforce the dhusi bundh. Residents, local leaders, and officials, including MLA Hardeep Singh Mundian, are actively participating in sandbagging efforts to prevent breaches, while the district administration ensures comprehensive flood mitigation measures are in place. Despite reports of crop damage in surrounding areas, officials emphasize there has been no loss of life.
