MORE than 10,000 people may have died in the monsoon floods which swept through the northern Indian state of Uttarakhand, washing away towns and roads two weeks ago, the speaker of the State Assembly said today.
"No one can give the exact death count but after traveling to different disaster affected areas and information gathered from victims and other locals of the area I could say that death toll is around 10,000," the speaker, Govind Singh Kunjwal told the media in state capital Dehradun.
Meanwhile, authorities have been folding up evacuation in many parts of the state even as some 4,000 people are still said to be stranded in the mountains.
The state was hit by floods on June 16.
