The floods have left 22 villages marooned in Ganjam district, disrupting daily life and access to essential services. Rising water levels in rivers like Rushikulya and Bahuda pose a risk of further inundation, especially in low-lying areas. A breached embankment near Goba has worsened the situation, allowing floodwaters to spread. Rail services have been suspended due to submerged railway bridges, affecting connectivity in Odisha and neighbouring Andhra Pradesh. The risk of further flooding remains high as water levels continue to rise, threatening more villages and infrastructure.
