Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Wednesday said a total of 39 people had lost their lives and 217 houses had been destroyed completely in the devastating landslides and flash floods that had occurred in the south-central districts of the state recently.
At least six people were missing and 304 rehabilitation camps were opened after the heavy rains battered several areas of the southern state, he told the Assembly.
After paying homage to the flood victims and pledging all support to the affected families, Speaker MB Rajesh declared the House as adjourned today.
The session, for the next two day, has been cancelled in the wake of the fresh rain alert as the MLAs have to rush to their respective constituencies to co-ordinate the flood relief programmes.
