Due to rain in highland areas, Ganga has increased

 
Varanasi: The Ganga's water level in Banaras has begun to rise as a result of the rain that fell in the hilly hills. There has been a 74 centimetre rise in water level over the past 24 hours. On Monday night, the water level was 59.04 metres; on Tuesday, it increased to 59.78 metres. The Central Water Commission estimates that the Ganges is expanding at a rate of 22 millimetres per hour. Additionally, the increasing tendency is present. The Ganges riverbank residents claimed that two steps had been flooded in the previous two to three days. However, danger still poses a real threat. The water hyacinth has also arrived at the
Ganges riverbanks at this time by travelling with the floodwaters. The swimmers are also having issues as a result of this.
