Uttarakhand: Rescuers race against time and weather

Men in uniform race against time and weather to rescue the many people still stranded in Uttarakhand. Thousands have been rescued but thousands more are left. Vishnu Som reports from the disaster zone.

Uttarakhand: IAF launches major rescue operations

The Army has launched one of the biggest rescue operations in Uttarakhand. Our men and women in uniform have been working tirelessly in the most difficult of circumstances to first bring relief to those stranded and then rescue them. Vishnu Som spoke to Colonel Rajiv Mehta, the officer commanding the relief operations in the entire Kedarnath valley.

Uttarakhand: Uncertainty, trauma and the endless wait

With so many people missing in the wake of the flash floods in Uttarakhand, and despite rescue efforts picking up pace, families of the pilgrims are camped in Dehradun desperately awaiting any news of their loved ones. And for many of the relatives, the desperation is slowly turning into anger at the slow response of the government, and clear lack of coordination on the ground.
