The Bihar government decided to withdraw alert in six of nine districts on Monday as the flood threat receded after the Nepal government decided against a blast to open the mouth of the blocked Bhote Kosi, a tributary of Kosi River.

The Principal Secretary of the Disaster Management Department, Vyasji, said the Nepal government would release water in a regulated way through holes created in the artificial lake instead of going in for a blast.

Hence, the increased inflow of water in Kosi into Indian side would be manageable, he said.
