Not Just Floods, Vadodara Is Also Fighting Crocodiles After Gujarat Rain

Not just floods, Vadodara is also fighting crocodiles that have entered residential areas after the Vishwamitri river, which flows through the city, swelled following heavy rain in Gujarat. Several crocodiles, measuring 10 to 15 feet, have been spotted on the roads, parks, outside residences, and on the premises of a university after a swollen Vishwamitri river flooded several areas of the city.

One of the reptiles was even spotted on the roof of a house inundated due to rainfall.

The Vishwamitri River, which has been overflowing and has flooded the city, is reportedly home to some 300 mugger crocodiles.

Its water level, however, has come down from its peak level of 37 feet - 12 feet above the danger mark - to 24 feet this morning.
