North India reels under relentless rain; several key areas flooded

Heavy rains continue to batter north India, submerging roads, washing away houses, and pushing the Yamuna above the danger mark. Jammu & Kashmir and Uttarakhand face serial flash floods from cloudbursts, leaving several dead and many missing. Punjab reports 29 deaths and thousands displaced in its “worst flood in recent history.” Delhi and NCR also remain on edge, with floodwaters entering homes and officials warning of fresh threats as barrages release water.
