Mundeswari river crossed primary danger level

Now down Durgapur release reaches at 83350 Cusec which inculdes the combined DVC release of 41000 Cusec.

Maithon and Panchet reserviors are under the controled of DVC while Durgapur is under the control of the West Bengal Govt.

The combine release from both Panchet and Maithon is termed as "combined release" from DVC.
It reaches Durgapur barrage and Durgapur finally releases water to Damodar river. Damodar river is further divided as Mundeswari and Damodar at Burdwan.

As there is huge uncontrolled areas in between Maithon/Panchet and Durgapur, the combined release of DVC may further increase at Durgapur owing to heavy rainfall in that uncontrolled catchement areas.

It is apprehended that down Durgapur release may touch 90,000 cusec soon.
