 | This article is about a current disaster where information can change quickly or be unreliable. The latest page updates may not reflect the most up-to-date information. |

| Date | 30 July 2024 |
|---|---|
| Time | 01:00–04:30 A.M. (IST) |
| Location | Wayanad district, Kerala, India |
| Coordinates | 11°46′54.4″N 76°13′57.6″E / 11.781778°N 76.232667°E |
| Type | Landslide |
| Cause | Rain |
| Outcome | Loss of human lives and properties |
| Deaths | 333+ |
| Non-fatal injuries | 200+ |
| Missing | 281+ |
In the early hours of 30 July 2024, multiple landslides occurred at Mundakkai, Chooralmala, and Meppadi villages of Wayanad district, Kerala, India. Heavy rains triggered the collapse of hillsides, resulting in torrents of mud, water, and boulders cascading down onto the area. With at least 333 deaths reported, over 200 injuries, and more than 281 still missing, the landslides marked one of the deadliest natural disasters in Kerala's history.[1][2] The landslides are among several extreme weather events that have occurred in India in recent years.[3]
Background
Wayanad, a hilly district in the Western Ghats mountain range, is prone to landslides during the monsoon season.[4][5][6] Due to heavy rainfall in the area, the residents in the Punchrimattom, Attamala and Mundakkai areas were moved by the local body authorities to relief camps on 29 June. Despite an alert issued by the district administration, many residents of the Chooramala area stayed in their houses as it was not marked as a landslide-prone area.[7] An estimated 570 mm (22.5 in) of rainfall was recorded in the two days preceding the disaster.[8]
A 2022 study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health on deforestation in Wayanad district showed that 62% of the green cover in the district disappeared between 1950 and 2018, while tea plantation cover rose by around 1800%, leaving less forest to keep muddy hills stable. In addition, Kerala's hilly regions have slopes of more than 20 degrees; these two factors may contribute to the increased risk of flash floods during heavy rains.[9] According to the Geological Survey of India, a total of 19,301 km2 (7,452 sq mi), or 49.7% of Kerala's total area, falls within landslide-prone areas.[10]
Incident
The first landslide struck the village of Mundakkai in Meppadi Gram Panchayat at around 01:00 IST, which swept away the entire village, followed by a second landslide to the north in nearby Chooralmala at around 04:10 IST. The second landslide diverted the Iruvazhinji River, resulting in flash floods and washing away the Chooralmala village. Approximately 400 families were stranded in Mundakkai and Attamala following the collapse of the only bridge connecting the settlements and Chooramala.[1] Overall, four villages, namely Mundakkai, Attamala, Chooralmala, and Kunhome, were affected by the landslides.[6][11]
The landslides killed 333 and injured over 200, making them the deadliest landslides in Kerala's history;[1][12][13] most victims were workers on tea and cardamom estates located in the region and were likely asleep in their makeshift tents when the landslides struck.[6] Another 281 people were left unaccounted for.[1][13][14] In Chooralmala, survivors mourned the loss of their fellow villagers, with one villager stating that up to 90% of the people he knew in the village had perished.[15] Muddy water and debris flowed and merged with the Cheliyar River, from which at least 177 bodies were found.[1][6][11][16]
Rescue operation
State and national disaster relief teams were dispatched immediately to conduct rescue operations but were hindered by strong river currents and heavy rains. The Indian Army sent more than 200 personnel to the area to assist with search and rescue operations. Local hospitals treated over 200 injured people; more than 4000 people were rescued and over 8000 people were sent to 82 disaster relief camps.[6][13][17][18] Schools and colleges were closed in 10 of 14 districts.[6][19] Kerala's State Disaster Management Authority, Kerala Fire & Rescue Services, and Kerala police, along with the Indian Air Force, Indian Navy, Defence Security Corps (DSC), National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), and volunteers participated in rescue operations.
On the first day of operations (30th July), inclement weather with heavy rains and landslides hampered the rescue. According to NDRF commander Akhilesh Kumar, rescue operations were paused during the night of 30 July due to heavy rains and the threat of further landslides in the area. Six hundred NDRF teams were deployed in addition to over fifty teams from the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard to take part in the relief operations.[20][21]
By 31st July, about 1500 personnel of the Armed Forces have been deployed in the area. A command-and-control center was set up in Kozhikode by the Army to coordinate humanitarian assistance and disaster relief efforts. Navy river crossing teams had also been dispatched. [22]
On 1 August a temporary Bailey bridge was constructed by the Army's Engineer Task Force from Madras Engineer Group. The 190-foot-long bridge was completed in record time. The bridge was named Cl 24 Bailey Bridge, and it connects the Chooralmala village with Mundakkai over the Iruvanipzha River. Major General VT Mathews, the General Officer Commanding (GOC) of Karnataka Kerala Sub-Area, passed from the bridge in his official vehicle. Numerous ambulances and essential services vehicles passed over the bridge which also helped in evacuation and rescue efforts.[23] The Kerala government set up 45 relief camps in the Wayanad district, accommodating over 4000 people. The state health department also established a control room for assistance in case of emergency.[17] On 1 August, the health minister of Kerala, Veena George, said that at least 1500 rescue personnel were deployed, including forensic surgeons.[24]
On 2 August, the Indian Air Force deployed C-130 and drone aircraft from Hindon airbase in Ghaziabad for the rescue operations, as well as a specialized team of experts for sub soil evacuation and rescue monitoring.[25][26][27] On 2nd August, forty teams of rescue personnel were divided over six zones to participate in the rescue operations. The zones consist of Attamala and Aaranmala (one) Mundakkai (two), Punjirimattam (three), Vellarmala Village Road (four), GVHSS Vellarmala (five) and downstream of the river Chaliyar (six). Eight police stations along the river Chaliyar have also been involved in the rescue efforts with expert swimmers in the region.[28]
Response
Domestic
Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced payments of ₹2 lakh (US$2,400) to relatives of the dead and ₹50,000 (US$600) to each injured.[29] Rahul Gandhi, leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha and former member of Parliament for Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency, spoke with Chief Minister of Kerala Pinarayi Vijayan and urged United Democratic Front workers to provide help.[30] The government of Tamil Nadu offered ₹5 crore for relief operations and sent medical and rescue teams.[31]
The Union Home Minister of India Amit Shah informed the Parliament of India that four early warnings were issued to the Government of Kerala between 23 and 26 July indicating possible rainfall of more than 20 cm (7.9 in) in and around the area.[32][33] The Chief Minister of Kerala responded by claiming that the red alert was issued for Wayanad only after the disaster and only a forecast of low probability for landslides was given for Wayanad on 30 and 31 July by the central agencies.[34][35][36]
The Kerala state government issued an order to scientific and technology institutions prohibiting scientists from visiting the site or discussing the landslides or their potential causes. It said that prior approval from the Kerala State Disaster Management Authority would be required before beginning any research in a region affected by a disaster.[37] Hours later, the gag order was revoked.[38]
International
Condolances came from US president Joe Biden,[39] Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian,[40] and Russian president Vladimir Putin.[41] Turkey's Ministry of Foreign Affairs extended its condolences and sympathies to the people of India,[42] as did Maldives President Mohamed Muizzu,[43] Australian high commissioner to India Philip Green,[44] Israeli Ambassador to India Naor Gilon,[45] French envoy to India Thierry Mathou,[46] Armenian minister of foreign affairs Ararat Mirzoyan,[47] President of UAE Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan,[48] and the Saudi Embassy in India.[49]
Corporate
Corporations such as Lulu Group International, RP Group, Kalyan Jewellers, Malabar Group, Aster DM Healthcare, and Adani Group offered up to ₹5 crore (US$600,000) to the disaster relief fund.[50][51]
VPS Healthcare offered assistance with the services of its subsidiaries for extraction support and medical treatment.[52]
Indian telecom service provider Jio increased their network strength in the affected areas and installed an additional tower near the area to improve communication services.[53] Airtel increased caps on affected customers voice and data services.[54]
