Heavy rainfall over the past 24 hours has resulted in flood-like conditions in parts of Chhattisgarh, notably affecting the districts of Raipur and Durg. The incessant downpour has led the Kharun River to rise, causing significant waterlogging and disrupting daily life.
Numerous roads and riverside villages have been submerged, with water entering homes in low-lying areas. One of the main roads connecting Raipur to Patan and Durg via Mahadev Ghat has experienced severe waterlogging, hindering traffic flow. The Raipur-Bhilai route through Mahadev Ghat is similarly affected, complicating travel for residents and commuters.
In Durg district, villages such as Amleshwar and Khudmuda are struggling with strong water currents and flooded roads, making movement difficult for the local population. As the situation continues to unfold, authorities are closely monitoring the impact on these communities.
Weather forecasts predict further rainfall and thunderstorms in the region, raising concerns about ongoing water accumulation in low-lying and riverside areas. Residents are advised to remain cautious and stay updated on weather alerts to ensure their safety.
