Ghaziabad: Hindon river embankment plan cleared to tackle flooding

The Ghaziabad civic authority has approved a project to construct protective embankments along the Hindon river to address recurring flooding in the region.

The project will involve land acquisition along identified stretches of the river where flooding has been reported during the monsoon.

Officials said the embankments are aimed at strengthening flood control infrastructure and reducing the impact of waterlogging in surrounding areas, reported The Indiatimes.

The move follows repeated instances of flooding and is intended to improve resilience in vulnerable zones.

The project forms part of ongoing efforts to strengthen urban infrastructure and disaster management systems.
