The rain that lashed Mudigere taluk in the month of August had resulted in landslides and flood.

A meeting on the rehabilitation of the victims was convened on September 27, in which the victims who wish to relocate were asked to submit a consent letter to the village accountant within a week. In spite of the VAs contacting the victims, none had responded.

The failure to submit consent letter has affected the process of chalking out a programme for the rehabilitation of the rain victims, said the deputy commissioner.
