DVC

Of floods and other things man-made

Rainfall caused by a low-pressure system in the Bay of Bengal last week led to an increase in water levels at the Maithon and Panchet reservoirs. After DVC released water from these reservoirs, vast areas in West Midnapore, Hooghly, Howrah, Bankura, East Midnapore, East Burdwan and West Burdwan were flooded.

Despite no or minimal rainfall in the six sub-basins of Damodar, the Damodar Valley Corporation has still released water today from its Maithon and Panchet dams.
