At least seven people died and 12 got injured, while 19 remain missing after a cloudburst in the Kishtwar district of Jammu and Kashmir. Flash floods in Honzar village caused trouble for locals. The State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) has launched the rescue operation. “I request the LG to visit this area to see the situation today. There is a lot of rubble here; we need specialised machinery to clear it. The villages have to be developed to build a developed nation,” said Kishtwar DDC Chairperson Pooja Devi.
