Rain affects daily life
However, the rain also disrupted movement in the region.
The Urmil River near the district headquarters overflowed at the low-lying ripta crossing between Chhatarpur and Deri, making it unsafe to travel. Water levels reached about 1.5 feet, cutting off the route for many devotees who were planning to visit the nearby sacred site, KudanTal Dham.
