Mushtaq Pulwama state chief<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Srinagar<\/strong>, August 4 : Jammu and Kashmir has witnessed more than 35 cloudburst incidents so far this year, resulting in the deaths of around 31 people and causing extensive damage to houses, roads, bridges and other public infrastructure across the Union Territory. According to official data, at least 22 cloudbursts were reported between June 1 and the middle of July. However, persistent heavy rainfall during the latter half of July and the beginning of August triggered several more cloudbursts, pushing the total number of such incidents beyond 35. The fatalities have largely been attributed to cloudbursts, flash floods and rain-triggered landslides, with the Jammu division accounting for the majority of the deaths.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Among the worst-affected districts are Poonch, Rajouri, Kathua, Doda and Kishtwar, where repeated weather-related disasters have caused significant loss of life and property. In Kashmir, districts including Shopian and Kupwara have also witnessed multiple cloudbursts and flash floods in recent weeks, disrupting normal life and damaging infrastructure. The recurring extreme weather events have led to the destruction of residential houses, roads, bridges, agricultural land and other public utilities, besides affecting connectivity in several remote areas. The latest spell of heavy rainfall has once again highlighted the vulnerability of mountainous regions to weather-induced disasters, with authorities continuing rescue, restoration and relief operations in several affected districts. Disaster management authorities have advised people residing in flood-prone and landslide-vulnerable areas to remain alert and strictly follow weather advisories as the monsoon continues to impact the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
