MENDHAR, July 3: A flash flood during heavy rain today washed away a culvert on Harni-Nar road in Mendhar sub- division snapping link of about half a dozen villages.
Reports said that there was heavy rain in the area this morning and it caused flood in several nallahs and Mendhar river.  Due to flash flood in  Harni Nallah, the culvert temporarily repaired by R&B Mendhar authorities, was washed away.  Due to this the vehicular movement on the road was snapped.
After the flood water receded, the people started moving through the nallah and the vehicles started trans-ship movement on the either side.  The link to Nakka Majari, Prat, Sangiot and Kallar Morha villages has been snapped.
Nadeem Khan,  Mendhar Youth Club chairman said that this culvert was also washed away during  last year floods but no proper repair work was initiated by the R&B authorities.  He demanded that a raised, strong and concrete culvert be constructed at this nallah for a permanent solution.
