Torch rally from Highland Park to Shyambazar held
Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi holding the Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) responsible for "unilaterally releasing water" and triggering the current flood situation in Bengal.
She further clarified that if such an unilateral approach continues bringing hardships to the people of Bengal, the state will be left with no option but to "disengage entirely from DVC" and withdraw its participation.
"The state is now facing the biggest flood in Lower Damodar and adjoining areas since 2009. More than 1000 square kilometres of area stands affected and nearly five million people of the state have been drawn into the vortex of miseries for loss of crops, damages to public infrastructure and private assets, including houses, cattle,” she wrote.
