A minister in the Madhya Pradesh government who had gone to help people stranded at a flooded area in the state himself got stuck and he had to be airlifted.
State Home Minister Narottam Mishra while on a survey of flood-hit Datia district found nine people stranded on a roof, surrounded by water. The house except for the terrace was completely submerged. Mr Mishra is an MLA from the same area.
On seeing them, Mr Mishra, who was on a boat of the State Disaster Response Force along with some relief workers, managed to reach the people, despite high winds and choppy water.
Just before the minister could make arrangement for rescuing the stranded people, a tree broke off and fell on the boat, after which the motor couldn't start, an official said.
