Flood alert extended for Kuda Ganga as water levels remain elevated

The Irrigation Department announced the extension of the flood warning on Wednesday, citing continued elevated water conditions in the Kuda Ganga Sub-Basin. The warning, which was set to expire, has been maintained to ensure residents and authorities in low-lying areas remain alert to potential flooding risks.

Residents in communities along the Kadu Ganga Sub-Basin have been advised to exercise caution and monitor official updates from the Irrigation Department. The department has recommended that people in vulnerable areas remain prepared to relocate if water levels rise further.

The Kalu Ganga River Basin, which encompasses the Kuda Ganga Sub-Basin, is monitored closely during periods of heavy rainfall and elevated water discharge. The extension of the warning comes as meteorological conditions continue to influence river levels across the region.

Authorities have urged the public to heed all advisories and avoid crossing flooded areas or engaging in activities near swollen waterways. Further updates from the Irrigation Department are expected as water levels are reassessed over the coming days.
