Teacher's delay saves 80 children in cloudburst-hit J&K village
Kishtwar: Indian Army personnel construct a Bailey bridge as part of restoration work at cloudburst-hit Chisoti village, in Kishtwar district, Jammu and Kashmir. (PTI Photo) CHASOTI: A teacher's hesitation spared 80 children from certain death. Minutes before a wall of water and boulders tore through Chasoti village in J&K's Kishtwar district, Hukum Chand kept his students back from a langar lunch. At 11.40am, the mountain barrelled down. The school stood. The children lived. Chand teaches at the village's lone primary school. He recalled how volunteers from the langar had invited the children to eat early on Aug 14. 'They were insisting on going around 11am. But since we were busy with Independence Day preparations, we held them back,' he said Sunday. When the roar grew louder and the ground shook, Chand saw the mountain collapsing into Rajai Nalla, the local stream. 'We directed older students to run toward higher ground. I held the younger ones back,' he said. Once the flood subsided, every child was safe. Chand then ran to the langar site. 'I saw bodies floating. I pulled out at least 30 injured from the debris.' His relief was cut with grief — his brother was among the dead. The deluge left no family untouched in Chasoti. Three priests — Budh Raj, Dina Nath, and Thakur Chand — perished along with villagers. The bodies of Nath and Chand were found, but Raj is still missing. 'We cremated 10 bodies together on Aug 15,' said Joginder Singh, 28, who lost his mother Gayatri Devi that day. 'There are 13 family trees in this village and every single one has been affected.' Singh's memory of his final words to his mother haunts him. He had gone with her to grind barley at a watermill, a routine task. 'She looked at me and said 'ok',' he said. 'That was my last conversation. Moments later, everything was gone. The temples — Kali Mata Mandir, Meynnag Mandir, Thein Mandir — the sacred tree near them too.' Later that day, he and other villagers found her body under the rubble. The devastation has shaken the community's faith. Some villagers said the gods are 'not happy'. Yet Singh believes divine forces spared them. 'A boulder was stopped by Ma Kali temple that pushed the water toward the stream and saved the village,' he said. At priest Raj's home, women wept inconsolably. The respected priest had warned for days something was coming. 'For the past 10 days, he had been saying something big was going to happen,' said Ram Krishan Khajuria, president of Sanathan Mandal Paddar Tehsil. 'On the very day, he stopped a woman from going to the fields.' Now, Chasoti's lanes echo with mourning. Relief camps shelter survivors. Chand's school houses Army and NDRF teams combing through debris. Amid loss and ruin, his choice — a delay over lunch — stands as the line that kept 80 children alive.

SDRF man Gets adoption Calls for 13-month-old girl saved from Kishtwar rubble, but child reunited with family
Kishtwar: Indian Army personnel construct a Bailey bridge as part of restoration work at cloudburst-hit Chadoti village, in Kishtwar district, Jammu and Kashmir. (PTI Photo) CHASOTI: A long beard, a navy-blue cap, a megaphone, and a child in his lap. That was how the world met Shahnawaz, an SDRF member from Doda in J&K. His photo — cradling a 13-month-old girl pulled alive from rubble at Chasoti village in Kishtwar district — has gone viral. Calls and messages poured in. Strangers wanted to adopt the baby. 'Her parents have been found. She is with them now, but people don't believe me,' Shahnawaz said Sunday. They kept calling. Flash floods from a cloudburst on Aug 14 tore through Chasoti's hillside stream. Rajai Nalla roared, hurling down boulders, trees, homes. A bridge snapped. People crossing the wooden span were swept away. Pilgrims at campsites and langars for Machail Mata Yatra vanished in a matter of seconds. At least 61 dead, 116 injured, and about 70 still missing. Rescue teams dug with excavators. Relatives stood along mud-brown banks, eyes fixed on orange vests. Desperation pushed them dangerously close to the torrent until one voice cut through: 'Step back.' That was Shahnawaz again, megaphone in hand, sprinting up and down the stream. 'Everyone is desperate. You cannot stop them from rushing to the spot when they hear that a body has been found,' he said, his voice turning hoarse. On Aug 14 evening, while clearing a shattered home, he spotted a faint movement — a tiny arm under debris. He pulled out the child, cleaned her, and wrapped her in a blanket. Then he asked colleagues to free a woman trapped nearby — the girl's mother, a healthcare worker. Alive. 'When the child began to cry, I was happy,' he said. Later that night, when phone networks revived, Shahnawaz's photo exploded online. 'I felt proud that people recognised our work. We gave our 100%. Saving lives brought us happiness.' The girl was handed back to her father, who had been frantically searching. Shahnawaz kept moving. The next day, Independence Day, he revived another girl with CPR and mouth-to-mouth. He had seen Kishtwar's worst for six years since he joined SDRF in 2019 — bodies fished from Chenab's icy currents after road crashes in the region's harsh terrain. 'Last winter, after pulling bodies from the freezing river, I felt my blood circulation had stopped,' he said. His family has always been supportive and proud of his work, despite the dangers. 'They're happy I saved the infant,' he said, smiling. Then he turned serious, patting the megaphone slung by his side: 'It has drained my voice, but it is part of my job.' As dusk fell on Chasoti, Shahnawaz's chilling warning echoed — stay away from the killer stream.

A press note from the Defence Wing said that during the meeting at the Raj Nivas, the Lt. Governor and the Army Commander held wide-range discussions on strengthening Civil–Defence cooperation.

These include physical training programmes designed to prepare young people for opportunities in the Indian Armed Forces and enhanced NSS (National Service Scheme) initiatives for children and youth in the Auroville community.
