      A Bad News !!

      Leh: Many people are missing and 50 bodies have been recovered after flash floods hit Leh in Ladakh. Reports said a number of people were killed and many injured in a massive cloudburst on Thursday night.

      The cloudburst triggered torrential rains, mudslides and flash floods. A number of homes were completely destroyed and around 200 injured people were taken to Army hospital.

      With communication links breaking down, the exact number of casualties is not known yet. But authorities fear that the number of dead could be over a hundred.

      The Srinagar-Leh Highway has been cut off as a crucial bridge between Syong and Nemu was washed away. The Leh airport runway is completely covered in mud and flight operations have been suspended.

      Old Leh city is worst affected, with the main hospital, SNM Hospital, flooded and the main bus stand flattened. The city's main telephone exchange is also submerged.

      An Indo Tibetan Boder Police camp and a number of government offices have also been damaged.
      The Army has rescued around 50 CRPF jawans trapped in the camp.

      The Army's 14 Corps has mobilised 6000 engineers and infantry troops and is using helicopters for rescue works.
