Following heavy rains in Karnataka that caused huge damages to properties and crops, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday spoke to Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa and assured all help in taking up relief and rescue operations.
"Spoke to CM @BSYBJP Ji on the rainfall and flood situation in various parts of Karnataka. We stand in solidarity with our sisters and brothers of Karnataka affected by the floods. Assured all possible support from the Centre in rescue and relief works that are underway," the PM tweeted.
Heavy rains caused huge damages in several districts including Gulbarga, Bagalkot, and Yadgir.
Once rain recedes and rescue operations begin, Centre is likely to send a study team to the state assess the damages.
