Kerala’s Wayanad Landslide: Top Disaster Official Unveils the Cause of the Crisis| Watch

Dr. Sekhar Lukose Kuriakose, Member Secretary of Kerala State Disaster Management, provided insight into the catastrophic landslide in Wayanad.

He explained that the disaster was caused by a unique hydrological phenomenon where "1 river became 2 rivers." This splitting of the waterway likely led to increased erosion and instability in the surrounding terrain.

The unusual water flow pattern overwhelmed the landscape's natural capacity to absorb and channel water, ultimately triggering the deadly landslide that devastated the region.
