Rough Digha Due to Low Pressure, Water Surging Over the Sea Wall

**Digha:** The Bay of Bengal is turbulent due to low pressure. Its impact has also been felt in Digha, a popular tourist destination in East Medinipur. Along with heavy rains, there has been a strong surge in the sea. Waves are crashing onto Digha's beach, and the sea water is even spilling over the sea wall towards the beach.


The water level is gradually rising. In areas where vendors usually set up their stalls, water has entered even a little distance from the sea wall. In some places, the water has accumulated up to waist height, causing difficulties for local businesses.


Due to the turbulent sea caused by low pressure, the administration has taken extra precautions regarding tourist safety. A ban has been imposed on tourists entering the sea. The administration is repeatedly using loudspeakers to warn tourists in the beach area.


Tourists are being repeatedly warned not to go near the sea due to the strong waves. Especially during high tide, they are being urged not to stand near the sea wall or attempt to enter the sea water.


Not only Digha but also the coastal areas of East Medinipur are under the administration's watch regarding rain and sea conditions due to low pressure. Necessary measures are being taken for tourist safety while monitoring the situation.


Overall, a precautionary situation has arisen on Digha's beach due to low pressure. With heavy rain on one side and a turbulent sea with strong surges on the other, the administration advises tourists to stay away from the sea.
