At least 21 people died and over 100 remained missing following a cloudburst over Lhonak Lake in north Sikkim district that triggered flash floods in the region earlier this week, news agency PTI reported. The flash flood led to the swelling of the river Teesta, sweeping away several houses in towns and villages and dozens of people, including Army personnel.
An National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) team was not able to land in Chungthang, one of the worst-hit places in north Sikkim due to inclement weather. The team was carrying communication equipment as the town is cut off from the rest of the state.
