Wayanad Landslide Anniversary: Silence, Tears Mark Remembrance At Hridaya Bhoomi
A heavy silence lingered over the hills of Wayanad in Kerala, on Wednesday, as hundreds gathered to mark the first anniversary of the devastating 2024 Mundakkai-Chooralmala landslides that claimed several lives. Families who lost their loved ones came together at the common burial ground in Puthumala, now renamed Hridaya Bhoomi, or "Heart Land" in memory of the victims. Grief hung in the air as some stood in silent prayer, while others struggled to hold back tears.
