Noney, March 21 2024:
The torrential rains that began early Thursday morning have badly impacted normal life in Noney district.
The heavy rains affected power supply in the district, resulting in a blackout since Wednesday.
People stayed indoors and used firewood or charcoal in their heaters to beat the cold wave.
Inter-village roads and the national highway have become slushy and muddy.
However, water scarcity will now be better controlled by the people themselves.
Meanwhile, the people of Noney district have appealed to the state government to look into the frequent breakdown/ erratic power supply in the district and resolve public grievances.
According to the Indian Metrological Department, rain will continue for one week.
