Thirty-five out of the 42 dams within the state were opened for the first time in history. All five overflow gates of the Idukki dam were opened at the same time, for the first time in 26 years. Heavy rains in Wayanad and Idukki have caused severe landslides and have left the hilly districts isolated.The situation was regularly monitored by the Prime Minister and the National Crisis Operation Committee coordinated the rescue and relief operations.
