All the youths trapped on the rock under Nagar Ghat have been rescued with the help of sailors and rescued safely. No one has filed any complaint.
Collector Anup Kumar Singh said that as usual, three to four turbines were started by NHDC for power generation in the morning.

Although some people have also got relief in this action, but today a large number of people have been made encroachment-free, in order to maintain the beauty of the city, action should be taken by the government administration to remove encroachments on other streets besides the main roads, in which Station Chowk Adarsh Marg Street is also being said to be the main one where encroachment has been done, due to which the road has been encroached upon.
