Wayanad Landslide: Due to heavy rains in Wayanad, Kerala, the rains started late on Monday 4 apart, Land in different places, ejaculated, the house in which, Bridges and vehicles were swept away, so far in this accident 24 News of people’s deaths are coming out, Due to being hit by a landslide 70 People got injured, other than that still 100 It is feared that more than 100 people are buried in this landslide.

In such a situation, the question arises that for how long can a person remain alive even after being buried under the debris in Wayanad landslide?, And what is the reason for death in a landslide,

How long can a person survive after being buried in a landslide?

Every year many people lose their lives due to being buried in landslides. Many people trapped in landslides are sometimes rescued alive through search operations.

In such a situation, the question arises that how long can a person survive after being trapped in a Wayanad landslide? So let us tell you that it depends on whether that person is getting oxygen to breathe or not. If a person is safe after being buried in a landslide but is buried in the soil and is getting oxygen, then he can survive for 3-4 days even if he does not get food and water.

But if the person is not getting oxygen at all, then he will die within about 5 minutes. In this, the biggest reason for the death of a person is suffocation. A person can survive if he is buried at some place and gets air and water. In many cases, it has been seen that even after being buried under heavy debris, people have been rescued alive after many days.

Apart from this, even if the mud is flowing, the weight of the mud is enough to break the body parts of a person, which can also cause death of the person. Actually, when something comes fast, it is able to break anything, something similar is happening in this case as well. When the mud falls on a person at a high speed and its weight is very high, then the chances of the person surviving are very less.

Prime minister Narendra Modi also gave his condolence to the people who have lost their loved ones in the Wayanad landslide.

Distressed by the landslides in parts of Wayanad. My thoughts are with all those who have lost their loved ones and prayers with those injured.

Rescue ops are currently underway to assist all those affected. Spoke to Kerala CM Shri @pinarayivijayan and also assured all possible…
