Multiple landslides triggered by torrential rains in southern India have killed 70 people, and many others are feared trapped under the debris, officials said Tuesday, with rescue operations being hampered by bad weather
The situation in southern India sounds really devastating with the landslides caused by heavy rains leading to such a tragic loss of lives. It’s heartbreaking to hear about the challenges faced by the rescue teams due to the bad weather conditions. Our thoughts are with those affected by this natural disaster, and we hope for the safety of all those still trapped under the debris.
The landslides hit hilly villages in Kerala state’s Wayanad district early Tuesday and destroyed many houses and a bridge, but authorities have yet to determine the full scope of the disaster. Rescuers were working to pull out people stuck under mud and debris, but their efforts were hampered by blocked roads and unstable terrain.
The landslides in Kerala state’s Wayanad district have caused significant damage to villages, including houses and infrastructure like a bridge. The challenges faced by rescuers due to blocked roads and unstable terrain make the situation even more difficult.
P M Manoj, press secretary to the Kerala chief minister, said the landslides had killed at least 70 people so far. Local media reported that most of the victims were tea estate workers.

The scenes of rescue workers navigating through the mud and debris to reach those stranded are truly harrowing. Vehicles are swept away and stuck in the swollen river.The airing of phone calls from stranded individuals pleading for help adds a sense of urgency to the rescue efforts.
