Rain wreaked havoc in Jaisalmer, flood situation, know how the weather will be today

Jaipur. Rajasthan, which has been battling heavy monsoon rains for a long time, has got relief from it for the time being. But before this, torrential rains in Ramdevra and Nachana areas of Jaisalmer district of western Rajasthan on Saturday created havoc. This led to flood-like conditions there. The continuous rain there for two days on and off has brought fear to the local residents. The Meteorological Department has predicted no rain anywhere in the entire state today.

According to the Meteorological Department, from today onwards, rain activities will weaken in the entire state. Due to this, there are chances of sunshine.

Despite the rains stopping, the temperature of the state is still below 36 degrees. On Saturday, the highest temperature of 35.3 degrees Celsius was recorded in Dholpur.

Rivers flowing in the sandy dunes of Jaisalmer
Due to the rain in the last two days in Ramdevra and Nachana areas of Jaisalmer district, rivers started flowing in the dunes.

In the lower areas including Bhil Basti and Naya Basti of Ramdevra, 2 to 3 feet of rainwater accumulated around the houses. The Sanskrit school was completely surrounded by water.
