No threat of floods, says Div Com Kashmir amid incessant rains
Divisional Commissioner Kashmir, Vijay Kumar Bidhuri today said there is no threat of floods in Kashmir valley, and the authorities are monitoring situation on hourly basis. He also said that the relentless downpour has almost compensated the deficit of rains.
Speaking to reporters here, Divisional Commissioner Kashmir expressed contentment over ongoing rains in Kashmir valley, saying people were craving for precipitation as the decrease of water level in rivers and springs had left orchards and agricultural land dry.

He said there is no threat of floods and authorities are monitoring situation with high alertness.
“The administration is monitoring all points on hourly basis and there is no need to worry. As of now there is no threat of floods, and the situation is under control. All points are being checked on hourly basis to keep eye on situation,” he said.
Responding to a query, he said that teams are inspecting markets to keep check on prices of essential commodities ahead of Eid-ul-Fitr.
