Heavy monsoon rains inundated the Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts over the past 48 hours, with some villages reporting up to 200 mm of rainfall in a single day.
The monsoon has intensified as the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea confluence increases moisture, a pattern seen in 2025 that disrupted agricultural activities.
Villages in Kasaragod and Kundapura have experienced flash floods, with Panoor village reporting a road washed away. The Karnataka State Disaster Response Team (SDRT) has set up relief camps and water pumps.
