The Punjab floods

Punjab has been severely affected by relentless floods, which have caused widespread devastation across the state. According to a report by Hindustan Times, at least 29 people have lost their lives, and over 15,600 individuals have been evacuated from submerged villages. The disaster has impacted more than 2.56 lakh people across 1,044 villages, particularly in districts like Gurdaspur, Amritsar, Fazilka, and Pathankot.

The floods have not only displaced thousands but also destroyed homes, crops, and infrastructure, severely crippling daily life and agriculture, the backbone of Punjab’s economy. Shortages of clean water, food, and medical aid continue to pose serious challenges for survivors.
