Kozhikode: Heavy downpour in northern Kerala has thrown life out of gear in the region with 14 landslides being reported in Wayanad.
One person was killed in a landslide at Vellamunda Panchayath while another has been reported missing in Neelimal in Muppanad Panchayath. Rescue personnel are at work in Malappuram and Wayanad.
Several low-lying areas in Wayanad are now submerged because of the heavy rains. Rescue camps have been set up at 32 different places. Some parts of Wayanad are virtually cut off from rest of the state.
Electricity has not been restored at many places. Many parts of Batheri-Mysore road and Batheri-Ooty road are now submerged.
