| Salal Dam gates opened amid rising Chenab Water levels | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, June 30: Authorities have opened multiple spillway gates of the Salal Dam in Jammu and Kashmir’s Reasi district due to a continuous rise in water levels in the Chenab River following heavy rainfall in the region.
Officials have issued advisories urging locals to stay away from the riverbanks and follow all safety instructions.
The gates were opened to safely discharge excess water and prevent any possible flooding downstream.
According to a prior report, Heavy rainfall across parts of Jammu and Kashmir led to a rise in the water level of the Chenab River, causing an overflow at the Baglihar Hydroelectric Power Project.
Doda-Kishtwar-Ramban Range Deputy Inspector General (DIG), Shridhar Patil, acknowledged the situation and urged people to stay away from rivers and overflowing streams. DIG Patil said, “All of you must have noticed that the water level has risen in the Chenab River. One incident has also come to our notice in the Doda district, in which some people have lost their lives. I appeal to all people not to go near the rivers… The water level is very high. Do not put yourself at risk.” |
