Heavy rainfall in Khajuraho has caused the Khoodar River to overflow, leading to the closure of the Khajuraho-Jatkara road after water submerged a bridge.
The historic town of Khajuraho in Madhya Pradesh is experiencing significant disruption due to intense rainfall. Over a 24-hour period, the region recorded 4.2 inches of rain, causing the Khoodar River to swell considerably.
The rising water levels of the Khoodar River have led to the submergence of a bridge, with water flowing over its structure. This has rendered the bridge impassable and resulted in the immediate closure of the crucial Khajuraho-Jatkara road.
Authorities have taken steps to halt traffic on the affected route to ensure public safety. The closure is impacting local connectivity and transportation in the area.
