Guwahati, India, July 1 (AFP\/APP):Rescuers in India’s northeast have recovered 20 bodies from the site of a landslide that buried a railway construction camp, the army said Friday, after a second day of search efforts.<\/p>\n

Security forces and disaster relief teams are still racing to rescue dozens more feared trapped under debris at the site of the incident in Manipur state.<\/p>\n

Most victims were reserve soldiers from the Territorial Army who had been working on the railway project.<\/p>\n

An army statement said that 18 people had been safely recovered so far, while 15 reservists and 29 civilians were still missing.<\/p>\n

A rescue team was digging through mud and removing boulders in the search for more survivors, army spokesman Sumit Kumar Sharma said.<\/p>\n

“The loss of lives, including our armed forces personnel is deeply saddening,” Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh wrote on Twitter.<\/p>\n

India’s remote northeast has been pummelled by heavy rainfall in recent weeks, triggering landslides and floods.<\/p>\n

Dozens were killed in the region after flooding last month, with relentless rains causing landslides and inundating homes.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, at least 10 people, including a four-year-old child, were killed in floods and landslides after unusually heavy rains hit several parts of India.<\/p>\n

Experts say climate change is increasing the number of extreme weather events around the world, with damming, deforestation and development projects in India exacerbating the human toll.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
