Three members of a family — a couple and their minor daughter — were killed in a landslide at the Mathgharia locality of Guwahati on Tuesday morning.
The landslip took place near Lakshmi Mandir at Nizarapar, Mathgharia, and was triggered by the heavy rainfall that lashed various parts of Guwahati and its adjoining areas since early morning hours.
The deceased have been identified as Nagen Rajbongshi, his wife Sunu and their minor daughter Mina.
Incidentally, the minor son of the dead couple had a providential escape, and was pulled out of the rubble alive.
