Monsoon Rains Cause Landslides, Flooding, and Waterlogging Across Several Indian StatesPreviousNext

Heavy monsoon rains across India have caused landslides, flooding, and waterlogging in multiple states. In Sikkim, a landslide blocked a road without casualties, while Chhattisgarh released water from Bango Dam, alerting downstream residents. Uttar Pradesh saw a wall collapse in Muzaffarnagar with no injuries. Flooding affected Chitrakoot, Odisha, Assam, and Haryana, disrupting transport and prompting rescue efforts. Authorities are monitoring conditions and advising caution in vulnerable areas amid ongoing rainfall.
