Lambi- The situation in the tailing areas is becoming serious day by day due to incessant rains in Punjab. At around three o'clock this morning, Mithri Minor overflowed in the area of ??village Gaggar, resulting in a gap of about fifteen feet wide at Mogha No. 4000. Due to this, about a hundred acres of fields were filled with water up to two feet and water also reached the outer residential areas of the village.
As the officials of the Canal Department did not reach the spot, the farmers of the village had to join hands to close the gap on their own. When the gap was revealed at around four o'clock in the morning, two and a half to three hundred farmers of the village gathered at the spot and started efforts to fill the gap by filling it with soil in bags. It is said that the gap was caused due to dead animals getting stuck under the bridges and increased water pressure.
