Volunteers were throwing sandbags one after another. The mayor was looking after their work. He said with disappointment, “The dam has broken near the new playground. Our efforts there failed. It will cost a lot of money to fix everything again. The entire infrastructure was swept away. Pionala of schools and hostels are not working. Students are not able to go to the toilet.
