Maharashtra: Indian Army Launches Flood Relief Operations at Khadki Village In Ahilyanagar
In response to incessant heavy rains, Khadki Village in Ahilyanagar district has experienced severe water logging, leading to waist-deep flooding and the marooning of residents. The village, located approximately 20 km from the Army’s Armoured Corps Centre and School (ACC&S), is facing a critical situation due to the rising water levels.
Following a request for assistance from the District Magistrate of Ahilyanagar, the Indian Army promptly mobilised one relief column from ACC&S to carry out rescue and relief operations in the affected area.
The relief column reached Aranggaon at 1735 hours to marry up with civil authorities, who then led them to the flood-hit village. The team reached the affected area at 1750 hours and has since commenced active rescue operations to assist the stranded population.
The Indian Army remains committed to extending all possible humanitarian assistance and support to fellow citizens during natural calamities and emergencies, operating in close coordination with civil administration to alleviate distress.
