Cloudbursts and Floods Cause Damage and Displacement in Jammu Kashmir and Other Indian StatesPreviousNext

Heavy rainfall and cloudbursts in Jammu and Kashmir's Baramulla and Kulgam districts have caused flash floods, damaging roads, bridges, homes, and agricultural fields. Rescue teams were deployed, and authorities advised residents to avoid rivers and streams. The extreme weather has also affected other Indian states, including Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Assam, where flooding has displaced thousands, submerged infrastructure, and disrupted daily life. Officials continue relief efforts amid growing concerns over increasing extreme weather events.
