Heavy monsoon rains have caused widespread flooding and deadly landslides across India. In the northern state of Uttarakhand, a landslide destroyed a section of the Yamunotri National Highway, trapping about 100 travelers. Rescue teams used ropes to bring them to safety. The monsoon season, which began in July 2026, has brought much more rain than usual. The western city of Surat was hit hard, receiving over 14 inches of rain in one day. Sadly, 34 flood victims were found in Surat by July 11. The Chief Minister of Gujarat announced a project to improve the city's infrastructure to prevent future floods. Officials warned of legal action if negligence caused the damage. The floods and landslides have caused deaths in other states too, including Himachal Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. Major cities like Delhi also experienced severe flooding, leading to collapsed structures and roads. In southern India, a landslide in Kerala killed five people. In the northeast, heavy rains damaged thousands of homes in Tripura, forcing thousands to move to relief camps. Landslides also blocked roads in Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh, making damage assessment difficult. Forecasters expect the heavy rain to continue in the northeast, leaving many displaced families uncertain about their future.
