Reportedly NDRF has rescued over 42,000 people in kerala, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat. Perhaps apart from these six states, parts of Tamilnadu were also on the brink of the deluge, while goa and Odisha were reeling under the after-effects of floods as the water levels receded to unveil a trail of destruction.



Furthermore the Met department has issued a red alert in Ernakulam, Thrissur, Idukki, Palakkad, Malappuram, Kozhikode, Wayanad, Kannur and Kasaragod districts of the state for Friday and in Ernakulam, Idukki, Palakkad, Malappuram, Kozhikode, Wayanad and Kannur for August 10. Apparently the weather office has predicted widespread heavy to very heavy rains likely over coastal Karnataka. Moreover the Maharashtra government has decided to release relief compensation to flood victims immediately and in cities, Rs 15,000 will be given per family and in rural areas Rs 10,000. A total of 34 rescue teams are working in Kolhapur and 36 in Sangli and these include teams of the NDRF, Navy, Coast Guard and State Disaster Response Force (SDRF).
