Narendra Modi reaches Uttarakhand, special planes of Gujarat Pilgrims
Dehradun: Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi will on Saturday make an aerial survey of flood-hit Uttarakhand where more than 550 people have lost their lives and over 50,000 people are still feared stranded.
Modi will also meet his Uttarakhand counterpart Vijay Bahuguna later in the day to discuss the situation.
The BJP leader will undertake a tour of the affected areas in rain-hit Uttarakhand where the famed Char Dhams have borne the brunt of devastation, especially Kedarnath which has turned virtually into a ghost town with an unspecified number of bodies lying under tonnes of debris in the temple premises and many strewn all over.
