Kodagu floods: 1,800 people return to their homes from relief camps across district, 3,227 remain displaced

Kodagu: Flood-hit Kodagu district in Karnataka is limping back to normalcy as hundreds of people returned to their homes from relief camps, said an official on Sunday. “Kodagu is getting back to normalcy. A total of 1,800 people returned from the relief camps to their villages wherever the houses are intact,” state Relief Commissioner Gangaram Baderia said in a statement.

The relief camps were set up a week ago in the district after torrential rains caused floods and landslides in the hilly district during the southwest monsoon from 14-22 August. The district’s Deputy Commissioner P Sreevidya had asked to relieve all the rescue teams, including the Indian Army, Air Force, Navy and other agencies, while keeping one team of the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), the statement added. The torrential rains have claimed 17 lives while damaging more than 2,200 homes and public buildings. The Karnataka government has sought Rs 2,000 crore interim relief to rehabilitate the flood affected in the district, about 270 kilometres from state capital Bengaluru. The district received moderate to heavy rainfall on Sunday, and is likely to continue to see moderate to heavy rains for the next two days, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.
