Heavy rains and flooding in Gujarat have washed away parts of the road leading to the Statue of Unity. Cracks and damage were reported near the Rajvi crossing on Dabhoi road, causing the route to be closed for public use. The road, which was recently constructed, was compromised by overflow from the Dhadhar river. Although the alternate side remains open, the closure affects the high volume of visitors to the Statue of Unity, which commemorates Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The situation highlights the vulnerability of infrastructure to extreme weather conditions.
