Following the flash flood on Monday, Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur conducted an aerial reconnaissance of the state and promised that the state government would provide new hoises in the Boh Valley, which was the most severely affected by the flood. "On Monday, heavy rains wreaked havoc on a community in Boh. I'm sorry to learn that a woman was killed in this landslide. Nine people are still trapped under the debris. We are trying our best to rescue them,” he said on Tuesday.
