West Bengal CM angered by unplanned water release by DVC
West Bengal CM is furious with Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) for releasing large water volumes without state consent amid rain forecasts, raising flood fears. TMC plans a mass protest post-Lakshmi Puja, accusing DVC and the Centre of a "man-made" flood conspiracy to disrupt Durga Puja. DVC denies allegations, citing dam safety due to heavy upstream rainfall.
