Lolab (Kupwara): Sub Divisional Magistrate Lolab on Friday directed field staff of different departments to strictly monitor impending situation amid heavy downpour.
SDM Javid Naseem Masoodi has directed the field teams to actively monitor the situation and see if any remedial action is required anywhere in the area.
The directions have come after many rivers, khuls and nallahs in sub-division Lolab have reportedly swollen up in wake of ongoing rains and already damaged several roads in Lolab.
The flashfloods have damaged the road at Shartmuqam on Krusan-Khurhama road along Shallagund besides a road near water reservoir in Branth Kuligam.
The incessant rains have been giving sleepless nights to the villages in the area especially in villages including Shallagund, Branth, Khurhama, Wani Mohalla and Shartmuqam. The populace especially in Shallagund is highly concerned as the rivulet near the local maktaba is witnessing a continuous surge in water level.
The residents have urged the authorities to take measures on a fast-track basis as to avoid any untoward incident.
