In historic deluge, flood control room abuzz with activity
Hindustan Times
|July 14, 2023
Since Wednesday night, the irrigation and flood control (I&FC) department's central flood control room in central Delhi's Shastri Nagar has been swamped with complaints. Nine officials working in the room barely take breaks and their phones buzz constantly.
Two officials first note down the complaints. They then call the officials from the departments concerned that can resolve the issue. Until 4pm on Thursday, the control room received 42 complaints in total -about people getting stranded, waterlogging, wall collapses and drainage issues among others.
