The leaders reviewed the condition of embankments and interacted with local residents to assess the immediate challenges posed by rising water level. Recognising the urgency of the situation, the Cabinet Ministers and Sisodia, with active support of the local community and the district administration, joined hands in strengthening the river’s weak points using gunny bags and crates.
The leaders appreciated the cooperation extended by the villagers and officials in timely fortifying the embankments and assured that the state government will continue to monitor the situation closely to avoid any untoward incident. The ministers said Sisodia and the entire leadership joined hands with Punjabis in this difficult time. In the press release, the name of Sisodia was written after the ministers.
