Ludhiana 9 Sep 2025 : After 13 days, the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, is finally visiting Punjab to meet the victims in the nine districts severely affected by the floods and provide them relief.
The question now arises whether PM Modi, coming after such a delay, will land on the ground to see the situation personally or just observe the devastation from the air. To truly understand the scale of destruction in districts like Gurdaspur, Firozpur, Tarn Taran, Fazilka, and Amritsar, it is essential to visit the affected areas.
On the other hand, the Punjab government has announced compensation of ₹20,000 per acre and ₹4 lakh for the family of each deceased person. Additionally, the central government has already been requested for the release of pending GST dues worth ₹60,000 crore before the Prime Minister’s visit. Currently, seeing the plight of flood-affected people in Punjab, political parties, social organizations, and even film personalities are providing help at their level.
Now, all eyes are on PM Modi’s visit to see whether he will make a significant announcement today or let the hopes of the victims go unmet. There is an urgent need for relief measures to be announced today, without any further delay.
Summary : During his visit to Punjab today, Prime Minister Modi’s itinerary will reveal whether he assesses the situation from the air or conducts an on-ground inspection of affected areas.
