Television footage showed rescue workers making their way through mud and uprooted trees to reach those who had been stranded. Vehicles swept off the roads were seen stuck in a swollen river. Local TV news channels also aired phone calls of stranded people asking for help.Authorities mobilized helicopters to help with rescue efforts and the Indian army was roped in to build a temporary bridge.“We are trying every way to rescue our people,” state Health Minister Veena George said.
