The heavy rains have also affected Nilanga, Devani, Shirur Anantpal, and Ausa talukas, worsening the agricultural crisis. Farmers, already reeling from Kharif crop losses, now face delays in Rabi sowing due to severe waterlogging.

Amid this worsening situation, the farming community has urged the district administration to conduct an immediate damage assessment and announce substantial relief for affected farmers.
