Udhampur (J&K),In
keeping with the efforts to provide all possible help to the AWAM flood relief
and rescue operations were undertaken by troops of Air Defence Brigade located
at Dhar Road in the villages of Sattani and Talpad in Udhampur.
Relief columns were dispatched to the two villages wherein a large number of
villagers were in a precarious situation due to heavy rains.
The village
Sattani was completely submerged in water and the people were at the risk of
being washed away by the heavy flow of water.
The Army rescued more than 200
people including women, children and senior citizens, who were later evacuated
to the nearby Garrison and provided with water, food and clothing.
The other team along with
Military engineers cleared the road of debris at village Talpad collected due
to landslides. This reconnected the link to the area and also assisted in
evacuation of villagers from other threatened areas.
