Heavy Rainfall Triggers Flood Fears and Evacuations in Mizoram's Kolasib District
Heavy and continuous rainfall in Mizoram's Kolasib district has caused flood fears, landslides, and road disruptions, prompting the evacuation of families from vulnerable areas such as Saihapui 'K' and Pangbalkawn village. Officials reported waterlogging as a major issue and denied any dam overflow at the Serlui 'B' Small Hydro Electricity Project, attributing panic partly to social media posts. Damage to houses and infrastructure has been reported, but no casualties have occurred so far amid ongoing monsoon disruptions.
