GAUHATI, India — A series of landslides and house collapses caused by heavy rains killed at least 14 people and injured more than 50 others in India’s remote northeast, an official said Saturday.
Rescue workers recovered 14 bodies Saturday after two days of heavy rains lashed areas around Itanagar, the capital of Arunachal Pradesh state, government official Bidol Tayeng said.
The landslides cut off the area from the rest of the state, Tayeng said, adding that electricity and water supplies were also cut.
Tayeng said the death toll is likely to rise as rescue efforts continue.
