Landslides have disrupted road connectivity while rivers continue to flow dangerously close to the danger mark, with Doda district being the worst affected. The heavy rainfall over the past few days has triggered multiple landslides across hilly terrains, blocking national and state highways.

Doda’s worsening condition highlights the urgent need for effective disaster preparedness and long-term solutions for landslide-prone re
