The floodwaters entered fields on the outskirts of Bahawalpur, damaging around 40 acres of cotton, maize, and other crops.
No casualties were reported. Rescue 1122 teams reached the site, while the Deputy Commissioner's office warned residents in low-lying areas to remain alert as more water is expected.
