In a tragic incident, one person was killed after a car fell into an overflowing drain in Madhya Pradesh's Damoh district last night.

As many as four persons were rescued from the car.

A search and rescue operation was carried out by the State Disaster Response Team Force (SDRF) after one of the victims went missing.

Incessant rains in the past few days have wrecked in Madhya Pradesh with swollen rivers over-flowing to nearby roads.

Meanwhile the MeT department in Bhopal has predicted heavy rainfall for the next 24 hours in the state.
