Three family members killed in landslide in Guwahati
Three members of a family were killed and another was injured when a landslide hit their house in Guwahati's Mathgharia area early Tuesday, police said.
The incident took place while the family was asleep, a senior police officer said. The victims were a couple and their daughter. Their son was injured and was taken to Gauhati Medical College and Hospital for treatment.
"The bodies were recovered and sent for post-mortem. The couple's son was injured and admitted to Gauhati Medical College and Hospital," the officer said.
The landslide is suspected to have been triggered by incessant rain that has been lashing the city since early Tuesday, according to police.
Local residents said the man worked as a daily-wage labourer and had been living in the area with his family and two minor children for several years.
How each outlet told it
A framing line is our reading of that outlet's own text — an interpretation, not a quotation and not a fact we assert. Check it against what the outlet published.
AI-extracted; can misattribute a claim — see Methodology.
Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status is Contested when two claims on this page negate each other; otherwise it counts the distinct outlets we found asserting that specific claim — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
