Watch on YouTube

Witness the reality of how continuous rainfall from July 26 to July 30 brought #Rajgarh city to a complete standstill.

This ground report reveals the harsh truth behind urban flooding and administrative failure. Rajgarh city witnessed 4 days of continuous heavy rainfall from July 26 to July 30, which brought the entire city to a standstill. The situation was so bad that many areas of the city were waterlogged, and there were power cuts and the water supply was disrupted. Our Ground Report team visited the affected areas of the city and spoke to local residents who questioned the administration’s negligence and lack of preparedness. #GroundReport by Abdul Wasim Ansari.
