Excavator Helps Pregnant Woman Cross Flooded 'Nullah' In Gadchiroli
More than 100 persons from a village were shifted to safety in Gadchiroli in Maharashtra on Friday after heavy rains caused a lake to swell. An excavator machine bucket was used to get a pregnant woman to cross a flooded 'nullah' and damaged road.
Water flowed into homes and a residential school in Suryapalli village in Sironcha tehsil after a lake breached its banks due to heavy rain late Thursday night, leading to 112 persons, including 76 students, being shifted to safety, a Gadchiroli District Disaster Management official told PTI.
