Heavy rainfall has triggered flash floods and landslides across Jammu and Kashmir, with dramatic visuals from Budgam drawing widespread attention. A video circulating online shows a shopping complex being swallowed by powerful floodwaters near Kashmir, highlighting the scale and speed of the weather emergency.
The scene from Budgam reflects the dangerous conditions created by intense rain in the region. Fast-moving water through populated areas can quickly turn destructive, while landslides add another layer of risk in vulnerable parts of Jammu and Kashmir.
The India Meteorological Department has warned that heavy rainfall is likely to continue for the next three days. That forecast keeps concerns high over more flash flooding, additional landslides and further disruption in areas already affected by the current spell of bad weather.
The impact of the rain has also extended to schools in Kashmir and Jammu, according to the report. With severe weather still active, the focus remains on how the region manages continuing rainfall and the threats it brings to infrastructure, travel and everyday life.
