Landslides are the collapse of soil or rocks along mountain slopes of mountains normally during the monsoon. The mountainous ranges found in Northeast India being young are landslide prone. This year the South West monsoon arrived early in the month of June with the weather department recording a high rainfall of 435mm in June alone in Manipur.
A massive landslide struck on the intervening night of 29-30 June 2022, in Manipur’s Noney district, completely destroying the railway yard at Tupul in Makhuam village, killing 61, injuring 27 and bodies still to be found.
