Budgam, Sept 5 (KNS): The District Administration Budgam on Friday said the situation has improved after the breach on the Jhelum embankment at Zoonipora, with water levels receding in the affected villages.
Officials told KNS early signs of reverse flow have been recorded at the breach site, with water moving back from Zoonipora into the Jhelum.
