Mamata requests Hemant to look into release of water from dams in Jharkhand


PTI, Aug 4, 2024, 3:19 PM IST

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Sunday said that she spoke to her Jharkhand counterpart Hemant Soren and requested him to look into the issue of release of water from dams in the neighbouring state.

Banerjee claimed that the release of water from Jharkhand was causing a man-man flood-like situation in West Bengal.

The Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC), which operates several hydropower projects in Jharkhand and West Bengal, however, said that water discharge was expected to reduce due to a dip in rainfall. DVC also said it does not foresee any major flood threat downstream as of now.
