Even as the water levels are receding in many parts of Kerala, the situation remains grim in many districts as the death toll since August 9 in the southern state has been increasing and reached 192.


India's batting icon VVS Laxman has urged people in Trivandrum to use fuel judiciously so that the rescue work can be carried out properly. On Saturday, Laxman tweeted: "Friends in Trivandrum plz don't unnecessarily fill ur petrol tanks. More than 1000 ltrs of fuel for rescue support per day is required here. It's becoming hard to arrange required fuel from pumps due to unnecessary over filling. Please be responsible & consume less #Kerala Floods."
