Thiruvananthapuram: The death of 24 people in flash floods and landslides caused by heavy rains in the hilly areas of Idukki and Kottayam districts in central Kerala has once again highlighted the recurring natural disasters in the state.

In August last year, 74 people were killed at Pettimudi in the Idukki district after a landslide decimated a settlement of tea plantation workers.
