What caused INDIA's deadliest landslide in Kerala?!!

[dilkushm]

As a person from Kerala thanks for your concern...many lost their lifes... almost 5 villages got completely under the soil...thanks to the people, army and all the rescue team...we need your support...🙌❤

We must stop deforestation to prevent such painful disasters from happening again.

As a person from Kerala, what has happened here is heartbreaking. The landslide has claimed many lives, with bodies found far from the site, carried by the river. Many are unrecognizable, adding to the grief. This tragedy is both shocking and deeply saddening.

My friend is from there... I can't even imagine the trauma the survivors must be going thru. Having to witness loved ones and dreams getting swept away at the blink of an eye... I don't know what to say. I just really hope everyone is safe

Mullaperiyar Dam... its a Massive Dam(186feet) in kerala Tamil nadu border.. 126years old... Validity of the dam was only 50 yrs..
Once the dam breaks it will wipe off 5-6 districts of kerala (half of kerala) and half tamil nadu will face famine, as their water source is destroyed. Hopefully it doesnt, as it is been strengthened in between by Tamil Nadu Govt.
People should not panic & should Request Govt to reduce water levels as soon as possible (may b below 60ft, i dont know technicalities).. and store water in a reservoir in tamil nadu, so that the pressure is reduced .. Later they can renovate the dam/construct new dam depending on the technical team's opinion or may leave it as it is..
This issue needs to be addressed urgently in view of increased rainfalls floods and landslides in kerala.

Yes it's is heartbreaking, but what's even worse is that even after all this no one is talking about mulapariyar dam. If this dam breaks it's game over for half of Kerala. We need both Central government and state governments of Tamil Nadu and Kerala to join hands for repair or rebuild.

Please a video on mullaperiyar dam .. it is in danger ⚠️ if that collapse Kerala and other neighbouring states gonna wipe out with the water from dam and the amount of water sea pushes back to land …. Happened in libia

The sad part is even after know it's sensitive area the govt didn't take any step to move people.not even after warning by the weather report

[abhilasha]

Another major issues we are worried about is mullaperiyar dam, govt should act on it other wise there will be another big disaster like this will happen

[DevinaPurushothaman-cqbd]

The list has almost covered the districts of Kerala

[riyasf]

A dam called Mullaperiar is like an Atom bomb above our head😒

[sangeethar]

sad thing is central govt kept giving them warning to relocate ppl from sensitive areas, a week prior, precautions were not taken. wish all news channels not only report the incidents that have happened, but also search n publish for such news and reports that is going to happen to saves ppl lives. eg:- in rainy season checking for the sensitive areas, does it have any warning signs, and report such news in prior so govt take action. also checking for dangerous damaged roads and warn public about pot holes, tree fall
most channels should work on prevention, as ultimate goal, along with bringing awareness about happened incidents

[HanselHessUnfiltered]

As a person in Kerala, I say we are the ones to blame not making the govt change policy when clear steps of action were prescribed and we didn't take action because of some of the influential people had some land in Wayanad and they were waiting a period to sell them.
This is what the greed of some people has caused
And our ignorance has also cost us.

It's not just the army, it's the local people, the canine squads and the collective effort that saved as many people as it did. It has been raining here for two weeks straight at this point any natural disaster would have happened but this is just too cruel. It's really scary because the place you've been before is totally unrecognisable now and a lot of people who have been saved or survived are sometimes the only ones in their family left. It's agonizing to think of their pain. People from abroad have been calling news channels to talk about their missing family members who have not been picking up their phone and some news channels stopped ad service to give a constant update about the disaster. I'd suggest that this is not the right time to talk about the cause but the right time to do what you can do. But I understand how you run this channel so be it.

Very good analysis as always 👏
RIP to the souls who passed in Wayanad 💐

[asmithasmu]

Not only army, the local people and other authorities are deeply working on it

[alimrayyan]

Condolences to the people who died in wayanad 😢😢 from kerala

[mithunchakravarthy]

Your video editing is too good!! Kudos to your team!!!

[WaveRider]

Wow. The list has 4 other Kerala districts above waynad. Damn.

[sunilkumarbaligar]

When it happens in Kerala entire india will give attention. Kodagu also had the same incident a few years back but no support from the central government as well as from the media. 😢
