Heavy rains triggered three landslides in Kerala's Wayanad district, killing at least 24 people and trapping hundreds. Rescue operations are underway, with multiple agencies, including NDRF and Defence Security Corps, involved. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has assured assistance to the Kerala government and directed BJP workers to aid in rescue efforts. Two Air Force helicopters are also set to join the operation. The Kerala State Disaster Management Authority is coordinating the rescue efforts, with the death toll expected to rise as more areas become accessible.
