He stated, “Every possible assistance should be provided to affected families, and immediate surveys of crop and house damage should be conducted so that eligible people receive assistance in accordance with rules.”
The Chief Minister directed that encroachments in the catchment area of the Mandakini River be identified and removed, a safety audit be conducted of the foot over bridge built over the river, and a concrete action plan be prepared to ensure that under no circumstances does sewer or drain water enter the Mandakini. He also directed that the damage suffered by traders and maths-temples of Chitrakoot Dham be assessed and assistance provided, and that a long-term action plan be prepared to reduce losses arising from such situations in the future.
CM Yogi said, “The survey of crop damage suffered by farmers affected by the floods should be completed at the earliest and eligible farmers should be provided compensation in accordance with rules. Families whose houses have been completely damaged should be provided the benefit of the Mukhyamantri Awas Yojana. Financial assistance should also be provided to affected families for the repair of partially damaged houses.”

The government will extend necessary support for the preservation of these religious and cultural sites.”
Reviewing the relief operations, the Chief Minister directed that distribution of the remaining relief kits among affected people be ensured within 48 hours. He said, “There should be no negligence of any kind in delivering relief materials.
