A dedicated channel for smooth flow of rainwater had been made by carrying out desilting work at Patiala ki Rao upstream of the bridge at Khuda Lahora. Currently, the desilting work downstream at the Dadumajra bridge is going on.

During the visit, the Chief Engineer directed the officers concerned of the Engineering Department to expedite the cleaning and desilting operations at Patiala ki Rao. This essential work is aimed at ensuring that the channel remains clear and is able to handle increased water flow during the rains. Instructions were also given to remove the bushes and vegetation to avoid blockage of water during rains.
