Farooq Abdullah Exclusive On J&K Cloudburst: 12 Feared Dead Near Machhel Mata | India Today News

A massive cloudburst has triggered a landslide and flash floods in Kishtwar, Jammu and Kashmir. The incident occurred near the Machhel Mata Mandir route, washing away tents for devotees and causing widespread destruction. According to sources mentioned in the transcript, at least 12 people are feared dead. Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah spoke on the disaster, noting the difficulties for rescue teams in the remote, mountainous area. He attributed the increasing frequency of such events to climate change, stating, "global warming has wreaked havoc in the mountainous areas because of which there are repeated such disasters." Rescue operations involving the SDRF, NDRF, police, and army are underway as authorities respond to the natural disaster affecting the pilgrimage route.
