Gujarat rains cause 28 deaths in four days; CM Patel monitors relief-rescue ops

Relentless rain coupled with flooding have taken a total of 28 lives in Gujarat.

Meanwhile, more than 6,000 people have been relocated by the authorities.

Anand has logged the highest number of deaths (6), followed by Ahmedabad (4), Gandhinagar (2), Kheda (2), Dahod (2), Surendranagar (2), Mahisagar (2), Vadodara (1), Morbi (1), Bharuch (1), Aravalli (1), Panchmahal (1), Jamnagar (1), Devbhumi Dwarka (1), and The Dangs (1).

While 13 people died by drowning in the floodwaters, 15 lost their lives by being crushed under buildings, structures, or objects that collapsed due to the heavy rains.

A total of 19 deaths have been reported in the past 48 hours.

CM Bhupendra Patel reviews relief efforts
Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel held a video conference from the State Emergency Operation Centre (SEOC) of the Gujarat State Disaster Management Authority (GSDMA) to review the rescue and relief operations in rain-affected areas, as well as the overall situation.

The CM specifically instructed officials to prioritise relief efforts for people stranded in water-logged areas of Vadodara, Devbhumi Dwarka, and Jamnagar districts.

Health Minister Rushikesh Patel, who was overseeing rescue and relief operations in Vadodara along with Minister Jagdish Vishwakarma, briefed the meeting on the flood situation and the problems faced by people due to waterlogging in their homes.
