Aly Goni, Iqbal Khan’s families stranded in J&K after flash floods
The recent flash floods and landslides triggered by cloudbursts in Jammu and Kashmir have left many families stranded, including those of popular TV actors Aly Goni and Iqbal Khan. The devastating natural disaster has disrupted communication networks, making it difficult for people to connect with their loved ones.
Aly Goni, who hails from Jammu, has shared his concern about his family being stuck in the region. In an interview with Hindustan Times, he expressed relief that he was eventually able to speak to his father, but acknowledged that many others may not be as fortunate. “Though networks were disrupted, I was eventually able to speak to dad,” he said. His words echo the anxiety and uncertainty that many people are currently facing in Jammu and Kashmir.
Iqbal Khan, another well-known face in the Indian television industry, has also shared his concern about his family’s well-being. His parents, who are stuck in Srinagar, have not been able to contact him since the floods hit the region. “Networks are completely blocked,” Iqbal lamented, expressing his frustration at not being able to get in touch with his family.
The flash floods and landslides caused by the cloudbursts have left a trail of destruction in their wake. Many villages and towns have been inundated with water, displacing thousands of people. The floods have also damaged infrastructure, including roads and bridges, making it difficult for rescuers to reach affected areas.
The Indian government has deployed teams of rescue workers and emergency services to the affected areas, but the challenging terrain and disrupted communication networks are hindering their efforts. The situation is particularly dire in areas where the floods have caused widespread damage, such as the Valley of Kashmir.
The floods have also disrupted essential services, including power and water supply. Many people are struggling to access basic necessities like food, shelter, and medical care. The situation is exacerbated by the fact that many areas are still cut off from the rest of the world, making it difficult for aid to reach those in need.
As the rescue efforts continue, the families of Aly Goni and Iqbal Khan, as well as many others, are anxiously waiting for news about their loved ones. The flash floods and landslides have been a devastating reminder of the power of nature and the importance of being prepared for such disasters.
