Punjab Floods Crisis: 3.5 Lakh Displaced, Farmland Underwater | Food Security at Risk

Описание: Punjab is facing its worst floods since 1988, leaving millions of people and farmers devastated. Over 3.5 lakh people have been affected, 37 lives lost, and more than 1.48 lakh hectares of crops destroyed, threatening India’s food security. Rivers like the Sutlej, Beas, and Ravi have overflowed, submerging 1,655 villages and turning farmland into water bodies as deep as 8 to 10 feet. Farmers are struggling as their crops, livestock, and livelihoods are washed away, raising urgent calls for relief and compensation. Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has announced a special loss assessment survey and requested the central government release pending funds and increase compensation for affected farmers. Rescue operations continue with support from NGOs, Sikh organizations, and public figures. This video dives into the economic impact on Punjab’s agriculture, the human tragedy, and the looming threat to India’s food supply. Stay informed on this unfolding disaster.
