Landslides after heavy pre-monsoon rain in Mizoram
A large number of villages in Mizoram have become
inaccessible after landslides, triggered by heavy and
incessant pre-monsoon rains that have been lashing
the state since Saturday, have blocked the roads,
official sources said on Wednesday.
The landslides blocked the Champai road in Saiha
district which connects the capital town with the
Mizoram-Myanmar border.
Kolasib district was the worst hit with 100 houses
damaged and four injured.
Power supply was disrupted in many places due to
lightning and damage to electric cables, while
broadband internet services and mobile services were
constantly disrupted.
Some newspapers were off the streets due to frequent
power cuts in Aizawl city, while Mamit district was
without power since Monday.
