Monsoon Wreaks Havoc In Bihar: Patna Waterlogged, Nawada School Turns Into Flooded Jail

Heavy monsoon rains have turned large parts of Bihar into waterlogged zones, with cities like Patna and Nawada facing severe disruptions. In Patna, continuous rainfall has led to knee-deep water in several residential and commercial areas, making daily life extremely difficult. Commuters are struggling to step out for work, schoolchildren are unable to reach classrooms, and the drainage system has failed to cope with the deluge.In Nawada, the situation is equally grim. Overflowing rivers and poor drainage have flooded homes, shops, fields, and even schools. One shocking image comes from Konia Primary School, which has effectively turned into a water prison. Classrooms are submerged, and children were seen sitting on desks to avoid the rising water. The school was later forced to send students home.Local residents have voiced strong criticism of the government's preparedness. Despite repeated assurances by the municipal corporation about timely drainage, water continues to accumulate. In many cases, families have taken shelter on rooftops as streets resemble rivers.Citizens and school authorities are urging the administration to take immediate relief measures and implement a permanent drainage solution to prevent such yearly crises.
