Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the disaster-stricken areas of Wayanad in Kerala on Saturday involved a personal inspection of the aftermath of the July 30 landslides, which tragically claimed the lives of nearly 400 individuals. During his visit, he interacted with survivors and those affected by the landslides. While refraining from announcing a relief package, Modi requested Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan to provide a comprehensive list of the state’s requirements. He reassured the state of the Centre’s commitment to offering any necessary support.

Modi’s day commenced at the Kannur International Airport, where he was warmly greeted by Governor Arif Mohammad Khan, Chief Minister Vijayan, and Union Minister Suresh Gopi. Subsequently, he boarded a military helicopter for an aerial assessment of the most impacted areas, including Mundakkal, Chooralmala, and Attamala. A senior official briefed the Prime Minister on the extent of the disaster during the flight.

Upon landing at a makeshift helipad in Kalpetta, Modi proceeded to Chooralmala, where he personally traversed approximately 500 meters through the devastated regions. Accompanied by Chief Secretary V. Venu and ADGP M.R. Ajith Kumar, Modi expressed deep concern as he passed by the demolished Vellarmala School, inquiring about the well-being of the students. He then crossed the Bailey bridge constructed by the Army, which replaced the original bridge washed away by flash floods triggered by the landslide. The swift construction of the Bailey bridge within 24 hours by the Army played a crucial role in aiding the rescue operations.

In a courageous act of heroism, a local young man named Prajeesh undertook multiple perilous journeys up a treacherous hill path to rescue numerous stranded individuals following devastating landslides in Wayanad’s high-range Mundakkai. Despite his valiant efforts, Prajeesh is now missing after embarking on a third rescue mission, leaving behind only his damaged jeep at Chooralmala. The community is torn between fears of the worst and hopes for his safe return.

Risking his life, Prajeesh bravely drove his vehicle up the hill a third time, only to be engulfed by the raging floodwaters, mud, and cascading boulders that descended from the mountains. This harrowing ordeal marked the tragic turn of events for Prajeesh, who had selflessly dedicated himself to saving lives in the wake of the landslides that struck the region on July 30. The residents of Chooralmala now affectionately refer to him as their “superhero.”

Hailing from the landslide-affected Chooralmala, Prajeesh was already esteemed by the villagers for his altruistic nature and willingness to assist anyone in need. Witnessing the initial landslides in Mundakkai, Prajeesh undertook two daring journeys up the hill to bring back stranded individuals before setting out to relocate with his family. However, a subsequent call prompted him to make a final ascent up the hill, a journey from which he did not return.

Prajeesh’s abandoned jeep was later discovered in Chooralmala town, yet there have been no sightings of him since. The community remains hopeful for his safe return, holding onto memories of his selfless acts of bravery and unwavering dedication to aiding others in times of crisis.
