Even as it finally stopped raining on Sunday, after five days of continuous downpour, reports of more deaths and destruction poured in from across the state. More than 150 people are reported to have died in the last six days, while thousands are stranded. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who held a high- level meeting with Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and top officials soon after arriving in Jammu on Sunday, announced an additional special assistance of Rs 1,000 crore for the state. Describing it as a “national level disaster”, he said, “More assistance will be provided, if required, after a proper survey of the situation has been made.”
