Srinagar: Heavy rainfall affected several parts of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), triggering flash floods in some areas and disrupting normal life.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, widespread overnight rain continued across the Kashmir Valley into Friday, with Budgam, Baramulla and Bandipora among the worst-affected districts.<\/p>\n

The downpour triggered flash floods in parts of Baramulla and Bandipora districts. No loss of life or major property damage was reported.<\/p>\n

In Bandipora district, flash floods inundated the Saderkoot Bala area, affecting roads and a government school. Muddy water entered the Government Primary School at Ganie Mohalla, Malpora, damaging classroom mats and forcing the suspension of classes for the day.<\/p>\n
