Prime Minister Narendra Modi Sunday arrived at the Jammu airport here, specially to conduct an aerial survey of the flood-ravaged areas of Jammu and Kashmir.

Modi was received by Governor N.N. Vohra and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah.

Accompanied by army chief General Dalbir Singh Suhag, Modi will conduct the aerial survey of the flood-affected areas of the Jammu region.

He will then fly to the Kashmir Valley to inspect the damage the floods, the worst the state has seen in 60 years, have caused.

Over 100 people have died in Jammu and Kashmir due to floods.
