Heavy Rain Causes Waterlogging in Several Siliguri Wards

Continuous heavy rainfall has left several parts of Siliguri underwater, making daily life difficult for many residents. The water has accumulated quickly, turning streets into large pools.

The worst-affected areas are Wards 31, 32, 39, 40, and 41 under the Siliguri Municipal Corporation. People living in these neighborhoods are facing significant hardships as water enters roads and low-lying areas.

Local residents say the problem is mainly due to a failing drainage system that cannot handle the heavy flow of rainwater. This has led to severe waterlogging across these five wards.

Key takeaway: Heavy rains have flooded five Siliguri wards due to poor drainage systems.
