At least 56 people have died in Uttar Pradesh over the past three days as relentless rains trigger flood‑like conditions in multiple districts.
Heavy monsoon showers have battered Uttar Pradesh for three consecutive days, leaving a death toll of 56 across the state. The fatalities have been reported in several districts where water levels rose rapidly, turning roads and low‑lying areas into temporary rivers.
The continuous downpour has created flood‑like conditions in a number of districts, submerging fields, disrupting transport and forcing residents to seek higher ground. Local authorities describe the situation as severe, with many villages cut off by water.
State officials have mobilised rescue teams and relief measures, urging people to stay alert and avoid unnecessary travel. Emergency shelters are being set up, and the administration is monitoring the weather forecast closely to coordinate further assistance.
