Heavy rainfall across Udupi district on Saturday has caused extensive damage to residential houses and rendered several main roads impassable.
Earlier this month, the region had been experiencing unusually high cloud cover, but the sudden surge in precipitation exceeded local drainage capacities, leading to rapid flooding in low-lying areas.
The widespread damage has disrupted daily commutes, prevented access to markets, and forced students to miss school. Authorities have begun inspecting the extent of the impact and advised residents to remain indoors until the situation stabilises. Source: Google News – Udupi District.
