According to a report prepared by the Ministry of Home Affairs Disaster Management Division, floods, triggered by heavy rainfall, have severely hit 11 states across the country and caused 868 deaths. Several parts of the country have experienced a very active monsoon between August 11 and 14, which has made up for the rainfall deficit of July. While heavy rains triggered a landslide in Kerala, Bihar endured embankment breach and flood water entering the houses. Even Jaipur, located in the desert state of Rajasthan, witnessed flood-like situations. As per the experts, there is no respite from rains in the coming days as another low-pressure area is likely to develop over the Bay of Bengal.
