Heavy rainfall in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand has led to devastating landslides, flash floods, and widespread destruction. The hill states have reportedly witnessed 82 deaths combined in the last few days, and there has been significant damage to infrastructure. The heavy rains are due to the northward movement of a monsoon trough and its interaction with a weak western disturbance.
