The ITBP, which is engaged in rescue and relief operations, also cited updated inputs received from the local administration, and said that 202 people are still missing.
The ITBP said the flash flood occurred in Rishi Ganga at around 10.45 a.m. due to a glacier falling into it, thereby exponentially increasing the volume of water.
