What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Heavy rainfall over the past two to three days has caused rivers and streams to overflow, leading to inundation in low-lying areas of Chhattisgarh. The rising Kharun River levels have impacted road connectivity between Raipur and Durg, specifically affecting the stretch through Mahadev Ghat and the Raipur-Bhilai route due to strong water flow. Additionally, the Durg-Dallirajhara rail section experienced waterlogging and track subsidence between Latabor and Gunderdehi stations, leading to cancellations and short-terminations of some services.
