Samastipur: The water level of rivers in Bihar’s Samastipur district has started rising rapidly once again due to monsoon rainfall and water flowing in from upstream areas. In particular, the water level of the Kareh River near Kalhuaghat in Singhia block has been witnessing a continuous and significant rise.
With the river moving towards the danger mark, residents living in nearby areas have become increasingly concerned. As the water pressure continues to build, both local residents and the administration are closely monitoring the situation.
Situation Serious Near Kalhuaghat
As the water level of the Kareh River continues to rise, the situation in Kalhuaghat and nearby riverside areas is becoming increasingly concerning. According to local residents, the continuous rise in the water level over the past few days has brought back memories of previous floods.
The strong current and expanding water spread have raised concerns that the situation could become more serious in the coming days if the water level continues to rise at the same pace.
Residents of Kalhuaghat and nearby villages are keeping a close watch on the river. Groups of villagers are regularly visiting the riverbank and sharing updates about the water level and flow. Young people and elderly residents are also monitoring the situation so that they can take precautions and protect their families in case of an emergency.

According to information available locally, the district and block administrations are closely monitoring the situation. Officials from the Water Resources Department and local representatives are keeping track of fluctuations in the Kareh River’s water level.
The administration is making efforts to remain prepared to respond quickly to any emergency. However, local residents believe that monitoring and preparedness at the ground level should be further strengthened so that relief and rescue assistance can be provided immediately if required.
Appeal to People to Stay Away from the River
In view of the situation, the local administration and community representatives have appealed to people to exercise extreme caution. Residents have been advised not to unnecessarily visit the riverbank or nearby ghats.
People often approach dangerous riverbanks to watch the rising water level or take selfies, which can prove life-threatening. Parents have also been urged to keep children away from the river and deep-water areas.
Livestock owners have been advised to keep their animals tied at safe, elevated locations to prevent any untoward incident.
