Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that Madhya Pradesh is one family. As a Chief Minister, I cannot sleep peacefully when some family members are lying in the gorge. The last 17 hours were catastrophic, full of anguish and suffering. There were 25 bodies in front of me together. It was unbearable and very sad. I felt that the Chief Minister’s own visit would speed up the relief and rescue operations and we would save some people’s life. As soon as I came to know about the accident, I immediately left for Uttarakhand. Chief Minister Chouhan, after returning from Dehradun, was discussing with the media representatives at the airport. It is worth mentioning that Chief Minister Chouhan left for Dehradun late on June 5, after receiving the news of the death of pilgrims of Panna district in a heart-rending road accident near Damta in Purola of Uttarkashi in Uttarakhand. Chief Minister Chouhan was accompanied by Mineral Resources Minister Brajendra Pratap Singh, Additional Chief Secretary (Home) Dr Rajesh Rajora, Director General of Police Sudhir Saxena, OSD Yogesh Chaudhary. The officials of Madhya Pradesh Bhawan Delhi were also called to Dehradun for co-ordination.
