Rapid Read A man climbed a tree in Jalgaon, Maharashtra to save himself from the flood surging around him. A man was stranded in the swollen Anjani River in Maharashtra’s Jalgaon district after relentless rain caused water levels to surge suddenly. Identified as Suresh Bhil, he was swept by the current and climbed a tall tree midstream to stay alive.

Villagers spotted him and alerted authorities, but rescue teams struggled to reach him as the river continued to rage. Officials have warned people to avoid crossing flooded rivers or entering waterlogged areas, stressing how quickly conditions can turn dangerous. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted widespread rainfall across Maharashtra over five days, issuing alerts of varying severity in multiple districts. Earlier this month, rain-related incidents claimed 13 lives and left 10 injured in a single day. Heavy downpours have damaged nearly 100 homes, while hundreds of families have been moved to safer areas due to flood-like conditions, according to the State Emergency Control Room.

Rainfall has been uneven across the state, with districts like Palghar, Mumbai, and Pune recording excess rain, while Nandurbar and Hingoli reported significant shortfalls. The State Emergency Operation Centre (SEOC) said real-time, location-based alerts are being issued widely to keep residents informed.
