High toll indicates that the system has not made any significant difference

Patna: At least 83 people were killed by lightning across Bihar on Thursday as heavy rains and thunderstorms lashed the state.

“A total of 83 people have lost their lives in lightning strikes in 23 out of 38 districts in Bihar till Thursday evening. Of these, 13 deaths have taken place in Gopalganj, eight each in Madhubani and Nawada, six each in Siwan and Bhagalpur and five each in East Champaran, Darbhanga and Banka districts. The rest of the toll is spread across 15 districts,” a senior official in the disaster management department (DMD) said.

The deaths put a question mark over the lightning early warning system and mobile app Indravajra introduced by the DMD to warn people that an area could be hit by thunderbolts.

The department had implemented the early warning system with the help of US-based Earth Networks by signing an MoU in August 2019. It also entered into a pact with Bangalore-based Qihou Solutions for early alerts through the app. The cost of the warning system and transmission of mobile alerts is being borne by the chief minister’s relief fund.
