More than 18 people have been killed in the landslide in Tawang district of Arunachal Pradesh.
According to an official report of PTI in news18.com, the Noa-Dehing river which is flowing above the danger mark has flooded human habitation and agricultural fields besides damaging many flood protection embankments.
Another report by The Times of India states that the pre-Monsoon showers that have been lashing to Assam during last few days have caused flood in the area. The state has already received 136% excess rainfall and more rain likely in next couple of days may dampen the situation further.
Continuous rain in the last couple of days has thrown life out of gear in several northeastern states including Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, and Nagaland.
Nagaland has already received deadly hailstorm that has caused extensive damage. Several roads within the twin capital cities of Itanagar and Naharlagun including the NH-415 were water-logged leading to traffic congestion in rush hour.
