A cloudburst in the Chatroo area of Kishtwar district in Jammu and Kashmir damaged shops and vehicles, with no casualties reported, while persistent rain disrupted normal life across the Chenab Valley. Authorities responded by ordering schools to close in the three districts of Kishtwar, Doda and Ramban. The cloudburst struck amid heavy rainfall that has been lashing the region, leaving shopfronts and vehicles damaged in the affected area. No loss of life or injuries have been reported so far. The rain has caused waterlogging and disrupted daily activities in parts of the valley, prompting district administrations in Kishtwar, Doda and Ramban to shut educational institutions as a precautionary measure. The closures affect schools across the districts, and residents have been advised to stay cautious as the weather continues to pose challenges. The full extent of the damage is still being assessed, and authorities are monitoring the situation.
