India monsoon rains updates | Reduction in rainfall over Himachal, Punjab, Haryana from today: IMD
The HinduThe rain ebbed in some places in north India and pelted down in others on July 11 with at least seven more people dead and hundreds stranded as raging waters gushed through villages, towns and fields – from Rajasthan to Himachal Pradesh. State governments stepped up relief and rescue efforts in the affected districts, navigating the trail of destruction left behind by the incessant downpour of the last three days. Northwest India saw incessant rainfall during the last three days, with many areas in Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan recording “heavy to extremely heavy” precipitation. This resulted in overflowing rivers, creeks and drains that have massively damaged infrastructure and disrupted essential services in Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Punjab.
