His paddy was ready for harvest, but the crestfallen farmer could do little as strong winds and rain damaged the painstakingly cultivated crop. His chilly crop, grown on black soil, which was at an early stage, was inundated with water. Cotton crops in the area also suffered heavy damage.

The overflowing of an irrigation tank located adjacent to his farm was the cause.
