“Neighbouring wards have been adversely affected by floods and landslides. There is no possibility to move from one to another place. Locals of Nachai are confined there. No foodstuffs and other essentials are being supplied here, the inventory of foods is also getting blank. Nachai is grappling with food crisis”, he added.
With the disruption of roads connecting the place after the downpour, the residents of Nachai have been troubled due to food shortage.
