Balasore:30/7/17: The flood in Bhograi block of Balasore district has not only ruined the livelihood of people, but also paralysed study of students as most of the schools are marooned while some other completely submerged.

The deluge has led to undeclared holidays for the students as well as teachers in many parts of the district. Many approach roads were inundated due to flood in Subarnarekha river. Villages were submerged forcing people to take shelter on high-lying places. The study materials remained under water, said a local guardian.

“Our school has been submerged by the flood. Our school bags and books were swept away as our houses were inundated,” student of Gabagaan village Haladhar Dandapata said.

On the other hand, some students have been stranded in a residential school in Bhograi block as the school was marooned.
