Heavy Rainfall Causes Flooding, Fatalities, and Disruptions in Uttarakhand and UP
Heavy rainfall in Uttarakhand and parts of Uttar Pradesh has caused flooding, landslides, and disruptions. In Almora, three family members died when their house collapsed due to continuous rain. In Dehradun, two people died after their car was swept away by strong currents, while one woman was rescued. Rising water levels in rivers like the Ganga and Yamuna have led to flood-like conditions, prompting school closures and emergency alerts across affected regions.
