The Kushewarsthan Police station in Darbhanga district of Bihar is flooded following incessant rainfall in the region. Snakes were seen swimming in the flood waters at the police station. 

And the same story of government indifference. ASI Mithlesh Singh says, "We have kept everything on tables to prevent them from getting submerged. We go for patrolling in rural areas using boats. We have not received boats from the govt yet, we are doing this on our own expenses. There is no electricity since last 3-4 days." 

The Patna Meteorological Centre has warned of more rain till August 1, especially in northern parts of the state which are closer to the foothills of Himalayas. Flood waters have spread to new areas in 11 districts, affecting one million more population, the state disaster management department said.
