Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is scheduled to visit Chitrakoot on Sunday to personally review rehabilitation efforts and provide direct assistance to families battered by the catastrophic flooding of the Mandakini River. Enduring nearly twenty days of relentless inundation, the region has suffered extensive infrastructural and residential damage. The Chief Minister will arrive via helicopter at Devangana Valley airport to conduct an aerial inspection of affected villages, submerged roads, and damaged bridges before heading to the Ramayan Mela complex to distribute essential relief kits.
Widespread Destruction Across 36 Villages and Ramghat
The severe monsoon overflow has left a deep trail of devastation across 36 villages, including the iconic Ramghat riverbank area, where water filled local shops and paralyzed commercial activity. Administrative records indicate that approximately 500 houses sustained structural damage during the prolonged crisis, with compensation already disbursed to 311 affected families. Furthermore, the ferocious currents wreaked havoc on vital connecting routes and local roadways. To manage the aftermath, local authorities including District Magistrate Pulkit Garg and Superintendent of Police Arun Kumar Singh have completed rigorous security and logistical reviews across all designated venues ahead of the high-profile visit.
High-Level Ministerial Attention Follows Madhya Pradesh CM’s Visit
The upcoming gubernatorial inspection underscores the gravity of the inter-state disaster affecting the sacred landscape of Chitrakoot, following a similar visit made a week prior by Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav. With local administration working overtime to restore normalcy and disburse remaining aid, CM Yogi's direct intervention aims to accelerate relief delivery, assess economic losses faced by riverside business owners, and ensure comprehensive support reaches every impacted household.
