Persistent rain has caused floods in many parts of the country and situation is bad in Bihar's Muzaffarpur district particularly in Katra and Aurai blocks due to the swollen Baghmati river breaching its embankments at many places.
About 8,000 families in these blocks have been displaced and have taken shelter in safer places.
In fact, the relief measures have also been announced already. Each affected family in the flood-hit area will be given one quintal of wheat, Rs. 2,250 in cash and a large polythene sheet.
