During the review meeting, Minister Narayana instructed officials to promptly remove sewage from drainage systems and assess all well water sources for safety. He also mentioned the possibility of bringing additional staff from neighboring municipalities to assist with the response efforts.

The municipal and health departments are committed to closely monitoring the situation until it returns to normal, ensuring the well-being of the community.
