पिछले एक हफ्ते में भारी बारिश की वजह से मध्य महाराष्ट्र की नदियां उफान पर हैं। अगले कुछ दिनों में भी बारिश थमने के कोई आसार नहीं नजर आ रहे हैं। स्थानीय लोगों का अंदाजा नहीं था कि ऐसे अचानक से बाढ़ आ जाएगी। सरकार भी बाढ़ के लिए तैयार नहीं थी, इसलिए वह इससे बचने के लिए तैयारियां नहीं कर सकी। लेकिन अब यही बाढ़ लोगों के लिए प्रलयकारी साबित हो रही है।
