Gaur, the headquarters of Rautahat, has been under water for two days due to the dam unilaterally built by the Indian side. After the government offices of the headquarters of Gaur were submerged in water, the service users were hit on Monday.
Most of the government offices in Gaur have been under water since Saturday. Gaur market is submerged due to water not draining. Due to the dam built by the Indian government in the border area, the water has stagnated in Gaur. Even when the local administration of Rautahat repeatedly requested to open the Sulis gate (the water drain gate) made for draining the water of the dam, the Indian authorities did not agree.
After the Bagmati and Lalbakaia rivers flooded, the government offices of Gaur were submerged. Now 2 to 3 feet of water has accumulated in Gaur Bazar. There is 4 feet of water in the customs area. Chief District Officer Vinod Kumar Khadka said that Gaur Bazar was inundated as the water could not drain.
"I had requested the Sitamarhi District Administration Chief (DM) in India to open the Sulis gate of the dam since yesterday," he said. They say they will open only when the water level drops. Now Gaur's condition is critical. The service users have been killed after the water has accumulated on the road in front of the government base.'
Indian officials refused to open the gate of the dam saying the above order. This is the reason why the water of Gaur has not been drained. Water has been standing on the road from Customs to BP Chowk for two days. Due to the Indian dam built three decades ago, Gaur market is flooded every year. After they started reaching the office, the district court issued a notice and requested the service user to come with the case work within 15 days. On the other hand, people are not able to reach the headquarters due to frozen water in Gaur Municipality-6 Lachka.
The amount of water in this area has decreased a bit on Monday. According to the administration, 412 families have been displaced so far due to floods and inundation. 236 families have been displaced in Durgabhagvati Rural Municipality. 89 families were displaced in Rajdevi municipality. According to the district administration office Gaur, the flood has damaged the municipalities of Gujra, Ishanath, Rajpur, Kataharia, Moulapur, Fatuwa Vijaypur.
