At least 50 people have died and 142 persons remain missing in the devastating flash floods in Sikkim, which was triggered by glacial burst on the South Lhonak lake on Wednesday morning.
The search for the 16 Army men continues. Meanwhile, the Indian Army is providing assistance in terms of food and medical facilities and extending communication facilities to civilians and tourists stranded in North Sikkim.
Altogether, 23 soldiers of Indian Army had gone missing due to the flash floods. With the rescue of one soldier, the operation to locate and rescue other 22 soldiers is underway.
The expedition is planned to be completed in the month of September. It also serves as a means for the Indian Army to train its military personnel to handle diverse challenges with precision and skill.
Spark Minda Foundation (SMF), in collaboration with the Indian Army in Kashmir, organised a six-day mega camp at Zangli Garrison, Kupwara, from August 21 to 26, 2023, with the aim of empowering people with disabilities in the region.
