Residents of two villages located near a pond in Madhya Pradesh's Damoh district have been shifted to safer places after leakage in the water body, officials said on Tuesday.
The action was taken following the information of leakage in the Poudi pond on July 24, tehsildar Monika Baghmare said.
Locals claimed the leakage further increased on morning of July 25, resulting in water-logging in both Poudi and Jetgarh villages.
