Amman, Sept. 27 (Petra) – Severe storms and torrential rains killed
at least 56 people across northern India’s Uttar Pradesh over the
weekend, officials said on Sunday.
The torrential downpours damaged over 1,000 homes, according to the
Associated Press, citing India’s Relief Commissioner’s Office.
The extreme weather was triggered by a deep depression moving inland
from the Bay of Bengal, which intensified rainfall across the region.
The state recorded 66.5 mm of rainfall between Friday and Sunday,
nearly nine times its seasonal average of 7.6 mm.
Home to more than 240 million people, Uttar Pradesh is India’s most
populous state and frequently experiences severe weather and heavy
flooding during the annual monsoon season.
