While the situation is gradually returning to normal in some areas, the Army remains on high alert and prepared to respond instantly wherever required.

Operations in Madhya Pradesh

In Madhya Pradesh, Army teams deployed in Guna and Shivpuri districts have been withdrawn as conditions improved. However, units from Ashoknagar-Gwalior are still monitoring Isagarh and Sihora, ensuring rapid response in case of renewed flooding.
