Monsoon rains claim many lives and loss in India

[Jayaraj.E]

                                 

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,     

I am sorry to say about the loss by the unprecedented flash floods in the state of Uttarkhand, one of Indian states. There are thousands of people were dead and many are missing.
The tragedy in Uttarakhand is slated to worsen with the death toll expected to cross 5,000, even as all those stranded in the temple town of Kedarnath were evacuated. The Army and others involved in the rescue operations on Sunday battled rains to evacuate at least 3000 people.

There was more bad news as the weather department reiterated its warning of adverse weather conditions from Monday, with over 19,000 remaining stranded in different parts of the state.

There are thousands of people who lost their children and families and everything.

I request you to pray for the people and their families...
