J-K CM Omar Abdullah said he would urge Prime Minister Narendra Modi to announce an adequate relief package during his visit, citing widespread losses to lives, roads, bridges, crops, and government infrastructure from recent floods and yatras.
J-K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said Union Home Minister Amit Shah had already visited Jammu and Kashmir to assess flood damage and chaired a review meeting. He added it would be "very good" if Prime Minister Narendra Modi also visited.
Continuous heavy rainfall has been witnessed in several parts of Jammu and Kashmir, with rivers swelling and flash flood-like conditions reported across multiple districts.
The administration of Gandoh Bhalesa Doda has started providing essential facilities to families who were rendered homeless after devastating flash floods and landslides that began on August 24 and continue to affect the region.
In view of the inclement weather conditions, the District Administration Reasi has been actively engaged in relief and restoration operations across the district under the supervision of the Deputy Commissioner.
