Up to 250 people have been killed and scores are still missing in the devastating landslides that hit Wayanad in Kerala in the early hours of July 30. As the search and rescue operations proceed under adverse weather conditions, the hopes of finding more survivors from the rubble seem to be dwindling. The landslides struck the Chooralmala and Mundakkai regions of Meppadi in Wayanad between 1.30 am and 3 am, sweeping away large swathes of lands and destroying the villages and tea estates dotting the region. The disaster is the worst to hit Kerala since the floods in 2018, which killed over 483 people.

Nothing is more important than life. Take care of yourself and your family. Don't chase money n material. Live your life, look for the greater purpose of life.

Pranamam. Despite the chilling situation, she tried to get help from sources known to her. Her presence of mind and her actions are commendable.

Sincere condolences to her family members. God took her to His Kingdom, where she would be safe forever.
