New Delhi: A building of the Doon Defence College in Dehradun’s Maldevta collapsed on Monday due to heavy rain. The River Bandal, which was overflowing after continuous rainfall in the state for the last 24 hours, washed away the building with its strong current.
A red alert for heavy rains in six districts, including Dehradun and Nainital has been sounded by the meteorological department in Uttarakhand. The hill state has been severely affected by the continuous monsoon rain, which has caused 60 deaths so far. Additionally, at least 17 people are missing.
Landslides triggered by heavy rain have blocked several roads, including national highways.
In Dehradun and Champawat, authorities have ordered the closure of all schools today due to heavy rain and flooding. In light of the floods, the Uttarakhand government has directed district magistrates and the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) to be on high alert and prepared to assist the people in case of any emergency.
