The number of people who died in the landslides that struck the hilly areas of Meppadi in Wayanad district on Tuesday following incessant rainfall has gone up to 164, the Kerala Chief Minister said on Wednesday.
Sharing a post on his official X handle, Siddaramaiah said, “The death toll in Kerala’s Wayanad landslide continues to rise. This is a very heinous tragedy, the fact that Kannadigas lost their lives in this tragedy made it even more painful.”
He added, “The deceased Kannadigars will be given a compensation of Rs 5 lakh each. Meanwhile, I pray that the soul of the deceased may rest in peace.”
