KOLKATA: Chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday wrote to PM Narendra Modi over the “perpetual river erosion” along the Ganga in Malda, Murshidabad and Nadia districts, causing severe loss of public utilities, private properties and agricultural land.
She also urged the PM’s intervention so that flood management and restoration schemes could be carried out to save lives and livelihood, while also mentioning the state’s funds crunch.
