- FAYAZ WANI @ Srinagar

In just four of the worst-hit districts, over 2,100 houses have been damaged, displacing families and rendering thousands homeless and without shelter.

Rains have been battering the Jammu region since mid-August, and the weatherman has predicted more rainfall in the region in the coming days.

In the mountainous Kishtwar district, where 66 persons were killed and 31 are still missing after heavy rains triggered a cloudburst and flash flood in remote Chesoti village on August 14, torrential rains have caused multiple cloudbursts, causing massive damage to property.

ZOHRAN MAMDANI TROUNCES TRUMPISM

Democratic sweeps in other key races, exposes the fragility of Trump's grip. It's a national referendum on the man's corrosive legacy. Voters in the nation's largest city, a microcosm of America's diversity, rejected Trump's exclusionary toolkit with visceral force. Mamdani turned the race into a personal battleground of identities, where heritage became both shield and sword. However, this very emphasis on leftist ideals could exacerbate national divisions. Mamdani's policies threaten to weaken the fight against illegal immigration and balloon expenditures on social measures, potentially straining the city's and the country's resources at a time when prudence is paramount.
