Aug 31, 2026

Satna (Madhya Pradesh), August 31,2 026(ANI): In the aftermath of the devastating floods, the condition of homes and shops in Chitrakoot remains dire; everything is in disarray, and the streets and shops are covered in mud and sludge. A local shop owner said, "The situation here is unlike anything I have ever seen in my life. I had never witnessed such a terrible flood. Right before our eyes, everything was washed away. Even the gas cylinder and the supplies I used to cook and eat have been washed away. I never imagined a flood like this would happen... I would just ask the administration to provide whatever help or support they can. If the administration can manage it, I would like some source of income or some form of compensation so that I can earn a living and feed my family."
