Kerala’s Wayanad Landslide: Top Disaster Official Unveils the Cause of the Crisis| Watch
Dr. Sekhar Lukose Kuriakose, Member Secretary of Kerala State Disaster Management, provided insight into the catastrophic landslide in Wayanad.
He explained that the disaster was caused by a unique hydrological phenomenon where "1 river became 2 rivers." This splitting of the waterway likely led to increased erosion and instability in the surrounding terrain.
The unusual water flow pattern overwhelmed the landscape's natural capacity to absorb and channel water, ultimately triggering the deadly landslide that devastated the region.
In the wake of a devastating landslide that has claimed over 93 lives in Kerala's Wayanad district, the Indian Air Force (IAF) has mobilized its helicopters for a critical rescue mission. The landslide, which struck the Chooralmala area earlier today, has buried homes and infrastructure under tons of debris, complicating rescue efforts. The IAF helicopters are playing a pivotal role in reaching the affected areas, navigating the challenging terrain and adverse weather conditions to deliver aid and evacuate survivors. As the scale of the disaster becomes increasingly clear, the operation underscores the urgency and intensity of the response needed to address this tragic event and provide relief to those impacted.
