India

It's another tough moment for a region that keeps getting hit by disasters.

Flooding from Mokh river wipes out 6 more homes

State and national disaster response teams are on the ground with medical support and ambulances.
Meanwhile, flooding from the Mokh river has wiped out six more homes in nearby Dhurma village, making things even harder for locals.
Just last month—August 2025—the area faced land subsidence and evacuations, showing how vulnerable this region really is.
