Asia’s largest sugar mill in Haryana has suffered significant damage due to recent floodwaters, resulting in an estimated loss of Rs 50 crore. The unexpected flooding has disrupted operations and caused extensive damage to the mill’s infrastructure and machinery.
The floodwaters entered the premises following heavy rainfall and inadequate drainage systems, leading to waterlogging and affecting the production process. Authorities are currently assessing the full extent of the damage and working on strategies to restore normal operations as soon as possible.
Impact on Production and Economy
The damage caused by the floods has led to a temporary halt in sugar production, which is expected to impact the local economy significantly. The mill plays a crucial role in the sugar industry of the region, supporting numerous farmers and workers dependent on its operations.
Government and Management Response
Both government officials and mill management have promised quick action to repair the damages. Efforts are underway to improve drainage facilities to prevent such incidents in the future. Compensation and relief measures for affected workers and farmers are also being considered.
