Gamanpura (Gujarat), Dec 1: Residents of Gamanpura Village in Gujarat are reeling from floods caused by the gushing of underground water from ONGC (Oil and Natural Gas Corporation) pipelines.

Buildings, homes and farmlands in and around the Mehsana district village have been inundated with silt and damaged crops.

Villagers have expressed their helplessness over the problems they are facing.

"The mud and sand that is coming from the underground is now all over our farmlands. All our farms have been destroyed. We do not know how we are going to survive and what we are going to grow,” said Jayant Patel, a farmer.

ONGC officials claimed that there was no emission of any harmful gases or chemicals due to the leakage.
