Credible sources within the affected areas revealed that remote areas of Taluka Jati and Shahbunder in Sujawal district lost road connectivity with the rest of the district due to heavy rainfall.
Affected villagers reported that the clearance of outfall drains was not carried out by the concerned authorities in time, causing the drains to overflow and resulting in reverse flow after the rainfall.
