BHOPAL [Maha Media]: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a heavy rainfall alert for 23 districts of Madhya Pradesh, including Jabalpur and Ratlam, on Wednesday. While Bhopal has been witnessing intermittent showers since morning, light rainfall is expected in Indore, Ujjain, and Gwalior.
In Narmadapuram, five out of 13 gates of the Tawa Dam have been opened by five feet each to regulate water levels.
