After the huge loss of life and property due to the landslide in Wayanad, Kerala, amid relief and rescue operations, contemplation has also started on who is responsible for this. Suggestions are coming from various political parties that the systems for forecasting natural disasters should be more foolproof.
More than 350 people have lost their lives due to landslides.
Meanwhile, on Wednesday, MPs in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha also discussed this issue. In Lok Sabha, BJP MP Tejasvi Surya was only able to say that more than 350 people have lost their lives due to landslides in Kerala in the last five years. These disasters occurred due to irregular business activities in the Western Ghats region. Many reports came out in this regard, but the UDF and LDF governments of Kerala kept suppressing them for many years.
