Cattle stranded on Mahanadi riverbed after sudden rise in water level in Banki

At least 15 cows have been stranded near the banks of the Mahanadi River in the Kushpangi area under Banki, Cuttack, after venturing out to graze, officials said.  The incident occurred late on Saturday night when the cattle went to the riverbed in search of fresh grass. Sudden swelling of the river due to increased water flow left them trapped on the partially submerged riverbanks.
