These are the 7 most dangerous zones of India which are prone to cloudbursts; they pose serious risks like...
New Delhi: Cloudburst incidents have caused massive destruction in hilly areas. It is a natural phenomenon in which heavy rains occur in a very short time, which causes floods and landslides. The risk of cloudburst is highest in certain areas of India. Do you know which are these 7 most dangerous zones and what the dangers are there? Which are the 7 most dangerous zones of the country? Jammu and Kashmir: Areas like Amarnath cave, Ganderbal, Pahalgam and Kishtwar are repeatedly affected. In 2022, a cloudburst in Amarnath caused heavy damage. Ladakh: The Leh region was devastated by a cloudburst in 2010, killing more than 200 people. Himachal Pradesh: Areas like Kullu, Kinnaur, Chamba, Dharamshala and Manali are vulnerable every year during the monsoon. Mandi witnessed 14 cloudbursts in 2025. Uttarakhand: Kedarnath, Chamoli, Rudraprayag, Tehri and Pithoragarh are high-risk areas. Dharali was hit recently on 5 August 2025. Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh: Tawang, Upper Siang and North Sikkim also witness cloudbursts, although fewer are reported. Maharashtra: A cloudburst in Mumbai in 2005 brought 944 mm of rainfall, submerging the city. Kerala: A cloudburst in Idukki and Wayanad in 2018 led to massive floods, killing 324 people. What kind of dangers are posed by cloudbursts? Flash floods: Sudden strong flows of water sweep away homes, roads and vehicles. Landslides: Rainfall causes soil and rocks to collapse, burying villages and property. Loss of life and property: People are swept away. Cattle die. Homes are destroyed. Communication disruption: Roads, electricity and mobile networks remain shut for several days. Loss of crops: Floods submerge fields, causing huge losses to farmers. Environmental damage: Forests and rivers are damaged, causing deterioration of the ecology. What do scientists say? According to scientists, cloudburst incidents are increasing. There are many reasons behind this. Climate change: Earth's warming keeps more moisture in the air, which causes heavy rains. For every 1-degree Celsius increase in temperature, the air absorbs 7% more moisture. Mountainous geography: High mountains like the Himalayas lift moist winds, causing cloudbursts. This process is called orographic lift. Monsoon and western disturbances: The combination of monsoon moisture and western disturbances creates unstable weather, which increases cloudbursts. Glacier melting: Melting of Himalayan glaciers increases the moisture in the atmosphere, which further intensifies the rain. Human activities: Deforestation, illegal mining and expansion of settlements weaken the soil, increasing the dangers.

Heavy rain: Many areas flooded in Davanagere, Haveri dists
Pic: Tungabhadra River flooded the Karibasaveshwar temple in Harihar taluk of Davanagere district on Monday due to heavy inflow Davanagere/Chitradurga/Haveri: Heavy rain was reported in Davanagere, Chitradurga, and Haveri districts, disrupting normal life. Following this, the district administrations of Davanagere and Chitradurga declared holidays for schools and colleges on Monday as a precautionary measure. Rainfall caused Tungabhadra River to flood, submerging the Patyapura bridge in Davanagere. The water flow in the Tungabhadra River increased after the release of 76,656 cusecs of water from the Tunga reservoir and 39,245 cusecs from the Bhadra reservoir, resulting in a flow of 1.1 lakh cusecs. Eight families residing on the riverbank in Honnali town were relocated to a care centre. During the month of Shravana, a large number of devotees visit Ukkadagatri for the darshan of deity Karibasaveshwara Swamy. With the Patyapura bridge submerged, access to Ukkadagatri is now via Tumminkatti, Malanayakanahalli, and Badabasapura in Haveri district. Additionally, fields and gardens in the area were inundated. In Chitradurga, many low-lying areas experienced rainwater accumulation in the city. Numerous houses partially collapsed across the district as rainwater rushed into low-lying areas. Due to the heavy rain, normal life was disrupted; many shops remained closed in several parts of the district due to fewer customers and uncertainty. The Haveri district received continuous rain for three days, recording 10mm on Sunday, when compared to the normal 3.8mm. Heavy rain in the district caused several houses to collapse in various taluks. However, the rivers Tungabhadra, Varada, Dharma, and Kumadvati continued to swell, crossing dangerous levels.
