District officials sent a relief team to Bhaghar village in Imamganj, Gaya, where about two thousand flood‑affected villagers were trapped, and began distributing essential supplies.
The district administration of Gaya responded swiftly after reports that Bhaghar village in Imamganj block was cut off by flood‑like conditions. Around two thousand residents, unable to leave their homes, were left without food, clean water and medical aid.
A government‑led relief team arrived on the scene early on Monday, setting up temporary distribution points at the village entrance. Officials handed out dry rations, bottled water and basic medical kits, while local volunteers assisted in reaching households in the most affected lanes.
Authorities have also deployed portable pumps to drain standing water and are coordinating with the state disaster management authority for additional support. The administration has assured that continued assistance will be provided until the water recedes and normalcy returns to the hamlet.
The swift deployment underscores the district’s commitment to mitigate the impact of seasonal flooding in Bihar’s rural areas, where infrastructure often struggles to cope with sudden water surges.
