The Rajasthan administration has stepped up preparations to tackle the threat of floods after abnormal rainfall hit large parts of the state. This year, 21 districts in Marudhara have received unusually heavy rains, while 16 districts faced more than normal showers, creating challenging conditions for both residents and officials.

In Hanumangarh district, where the situation is especially concerning due to the rising water levels of the Ghaggar river, Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma has spoken with Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann about the possibility of additional inflow. Officials across the state have been put on high alert.

At a press conference in the Collectorate auditorium on Monday, District Collector Dr. Khushal Yadav, Superintendent of Police Hari Shankar, ADM Ummedilal Meena, and Regulation Superintending Engineer Rama Kishan assured people that there is no cause for panic. “The situation is normal at present, and the administration is fully prepared to handle any emergency,” they said.
