Bundelkhand, a drought-prone region in India, has experienced unusually heavy monsoon rains this year.
The excessive rainfall has caused significant damage to kharif crops such as sesame, peanuts, and pulses.

Many farmers are facing financial difficulties due to the destruction of their crops. Additionally, the flooding has caused damage to infrastructure, including roads and drainage systems, and has led to the collapse of mud houses in some areas.
