According to reports, over 1,000 villages have been affected and more than 61,000 hectares of farmland have been submerged. Among the worst-hit districts are Gurdaspur, Fazilka, Kapurthala, Tarn Taran, Ferozepur, Hoshiarpur and Amritsar. With rescue operations underway, officials have also temporarily suspended the Char Dham Yatra and Hemkund Sahib pilgrimage until September 5 as a precautionary measure.<\/p>\n
