Kerala minister labels Wayanad landslide a 'manmade disaster', cites ignored warnings

A landslide in Kerala's Wayanad on Tuesday was reportedly caused by construction waste from a twin tunnel project, following ignored instructions to clear the site. State Environment Minister Sunny Joseph described the event as a "manmade disaster," noting that the district collector had issued an order on June 20 to halt work until the soil from the tunneling process was removed. The landslide has resulted in at least five deaths.
