Disasters caused by landslides and floods are common in the country’s northeast region during the June-September monsoon season.
Floods and landslides triggered by heavy rains have killed at least 16 people over the last two weeks in India’s northeast, where more than 300,000 have been displaced from their submerged homes, authorities said on Tuesday.
Flood affected villagers and their cattle make their way through flood waters in Sildubi village in Morigaon district in the northeastern state of Assam, India Army troopers there rescued 70 students and teachers from a flooded school in Changlang district, police said. Back in Assam, animals at the famed Kaziranga National Park, home to some 2,500 one-horned Rhinos, are moving to higher ground to escape the floods.
