Heavy rainfall in Jammu causes severe flooding as the Tawi and Devika rivers overflowed, washing away roads near the fourth Tawi bridge.
Indian Army and State Disaster Response Force teams launched extensive rescue operations in flood-affected areas while authorities evacuated residents from dangerous zones across Jammu on Tuesday.
