Persistent rainfall across Chhattisgarh has triggered flood-like conditions in several areas, with rising water levels in the Kharun River causing waterlogging in villages across Raipur and Durg districts, reports PTI. Roads have been submerged in multiple locations, water has entered homes in some villages and train operations on the Durg-Dallirajhara section were disrupted on Saturday, September 26.
The road linking Raipur with Patan and Durg through Mahadev Ghat has gone under water following the rise in the river, affecting commuter movement. The Raipur-Bhilai route through the same stretch has also been impacted, with strong water flow across the road making travel difficult.
