Worst flood in 40 years destroys rural Goa, woman feared dead

Goa witnessed its worst and most widespread floods in nearly four decades — the last being in 1982 — on Friday, after unrelenting rain lashed the state for over a week. Nearly a thousand houses were damaged, many collapsed, at least two minor bridges were washed away and roads submerged, largely in Sattari, Bicholim and Ponda talukas, besides parts of Bardez, Pernem and Dharbandora.
