Uttarakhand in Northern India, has been experiencing heavy rainfall, resulting in contrasting effects. The region has witnessed landslides triggered by the incessant downpours.
The landslides have caused significant damage to infrastructure, including roads and buildings, disrupting normal life in the affected areas.
The state government and local authorities are actively engaged in clearing the debris and restoring connectivity. Rescue and relief operations are underway to assist those affected and ensure their safety.
Meanwhile, there is some respite as the water level of the Yamuna River in North India has receded. Due to a decline in rainfall in the catchment areas, the water level of the river has decreased.
This decrease brings relief to the regions along its banks, reducing the risk of floods and potential damage to infrastructure near the riverbanks.
Precautionary measures have been put in place to mitigate risks associated with heavy rainfall in Uttarakhand. Authorities have issued advisories, urging people to stay away from vulnerable areas and not venture into the mountains during this period.
