PM Modi likely to visit J&K next week
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to visit the flood-affected areas of the Union Territory (UT) of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) during the upcoming Navratras, beginning September 22, to assess the damage caused by the recent unprecedented rains across both Jammu and Kashmir regions.
Highly placed sources revealed that during his visit, PM Modi is expected to announce a major relief package for the affected population of the UT.
BJP General Secretary (Organisation), Ashok Koul, confirmed the planned visit, stating, “The PM will visit J&K during Navratras, and the dates are currently being finalised. He will visit flood-hit areas in both Jammu and Kashmir.”
The Prime Minister’s visit is expected to be a one-day trip, during which he will take stock of the destruction caused by cloudbursts, landslides, and flooding triggered by heavy rains. He is also likely to meet with residents impacted by these natural calamities.
Sources further added that a high-level central government team will accompany the Prime Minister to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the damage, particularly in the worst-hit areas of Jammu region.
An aerial survey of the flood-affected regions is also on the Prime Minister’s itinerary. Based on the findings of the visit and assessment, the Government of India (GoI) is expected to announce a substantial relief package for the UT.
Earlier, Union Home Minister Amit Shah had also visited Jammu to review the flood situation. A central team has already completed a preliminary assessment of the damages caused by the relentless rains across J&K.
