Wayanad is grappling with unprecedented devastation as five villages have been entirely destroyed by severe flooding and landslides. Areas such as Mandakkai and Chural mala are now unrecognizable, and panic grips the region as relentless rain continues to hinder rescue operations.

The official death toll has surpassed 300, with hundreds more still missing. Many individuals are feared trapped under debris, and the army is actively searching for survivors. RTV’s on-ground report highlights the severe scale of destruction in Wayanad, revealing that the rescue efforts are uncovering numerous bodies buried beneath the mud.

The scenes are harrowing, with bodies emerging from the rubble as mounds of earth are cleared. Rivers are being filled with the remains of those who perished, and body parts are scattered across the landscape. The ongoing rescue operations are uncovering more bodies, and the death toll is expected to rise significantly, with estimates suggesting that it could reach or exceed 1,000.
