BETTIAH, Aug. 9 -- The turbulent Tilawe, a hilly river originating from Nepal, breached its embankment at a village in Ramgarhwa block of East Champaran district of Bihar on Friday night, inundating a vast tract of agriculture land. According to officials, following a heavy pressure and high water current in the river, the embankment collapsed, measuring around 20-feet at Unchi Bhatiya village of Ramgarhwa block of East Champaran district on Friday night. "Efforts are on to plug the collapsed area," said Amit Kumar, circle officer (CO), Ramgarhwa. This is the second time that the embankment over the Tilawe river had breached in Ramgarhwa block during this monsoon, confirmed the officials. Officials said after breaching the embankment, the water from the Tilawe river started flowing into low-lying areas and agriculture land of few villages. Among the affected villages include Uchi Bhatiya, Mangapur, Bhatiya of Patani panchayat in Ramgarhwa block. However, officials ruled out a flood-like situation in the villages following the breach of the bund. "Water has not gushed into the villages," the CO said. Meanwhile, following relatively low (1.31 cusec) discharge from Valmikinagar barrage, water level in rivers namely Gandak, Sikarahana, Labakeya, Tilawe and Masan among other rivers, flowing through the two districts of East Champaran and West Champaran, receded, bringing partial relief to water inundated areas on Saturday....
