Uttarakhand Flood: PM announces ex-gratia of Rs 2 lakh to next of kin of those killed

New Delhi, Feb 7 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday announced an ex-gratia of Rs two lakh each from Prime Minister's National Relief Fund for the next of kin of those who have lost their lives due to tragic avalanche caused by Glacier breach in Chamoli.

Rs 50,000 will be given to those seriously injured in this avalanche.

At around 10:45 am on Sunday, a flash flood occurred in river Rishi Ganga after glacier fell in the river, which exponentially increased the volume of water.

With this, the ongoing Rishi Ganga hydro project near Raini village and the BRO bridge on Joshimath-Malari highway were also completely washed away.
