Kerala landslide: Toll rises to 49, six forest department staff members among those killed #IndiaNEWS
The toll from the landslide in Kerala’s Idukki district rose to 49 on Monday, the National Disaster Response Force said. Six staff members of the state’s forest department are among the people killed in the landslide, according to Onmanorama. The landslide happened at the Nayamakkad tea estate in Idukki on Friday. The estate is located about 30 km from Munnar, adjacent to the Eravikulam National Park, and can be accessed only through the national park. But since the park is closed and a bridge at Periyavarai connecting the areas was washed away, there is no direct access. Eravikulam National Park Range Officer J Neriamparambil told The News Minute that the staff members included tourist bus drivers, a protection watcher and a worker at the park’s eco-shop. “The forest staff from the Pettimudi settlement were active members of the department and it was a big loss to us,??? the officer said. NDRF Director General Satya Narayan Pradhan said about 17 people are still missing. #KeralaRains2020 UPDATE 10/8/20????#Landslide,Munnar????@NDRFHQ @ worh??{???25T??%?6?f" ?~)?T"s?f?7F??>)?S"?fR?B????7?)?TFVB&?F?W26?f"?C??r??tVr?????Vr??r???Vrf???bF?F??b?r7F????76??~)?T?2???????F??F???F??$???Tff?'2?2?Gv?GFW"?6???tE%?rf?F6??
