Teams of the Army and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) on Saturday reached Dhar district of Madhya Pradesh, where a breach in the wall of an under-construction dam on Karam river, had set off alarm bells.
Two helicopters of the Indian Air Force (IAF) were put on standby to deal with any emergency situation, officials said.
The government said water was being safely drained out from the reservoir to reduce pressure on its wall.
