After SYL breach, situation in Patiala grave, govt asks for more Army columns
Chandigarh: With the passing of every hour, the situation in Patiala seems to be turning grave as the Punjab government has sought the help of more Army personnel to deal with floods in the district. In a communication sent to the Adviser of Civil Military Affairs of GOC-in-C Secretariat at the Western Command in Chandimandir, the Punjab Home Secretary has requested for ‘urgent’ deployment of more Army personnel to help in rescuing the people.
The Army had arrived on Sunday night and is helping with the rescue operation in the district. “Now, there is further requirement of urgent assistance at Gopal Colony as the Badi Nadi is also overflowing and the district administration would also need to have assistance at standby for Patran and Devigarh,” the Home Secretary said.
