Blitz of lightning strikes kills 76 across 3 states in 24 hours
遭遇雷击,24小时内3个邦死亡76人
JAIPUR/LUCKNOW/BHOPAL: The human toll in the blitz of lightning strikes that bore down on parts of northern and central India over the weekend shot up to 76 on Monday, with MP reporting 12 casualties in 24 hours to add to UP’s updated count of 41 and Rajasthan’s 23.
斋浦尔/勒克瑙/博帕尔:周末,印度北部和中部部分地区遭雷击,周一死亡人数飙升至76人,议员报告称,24小时内有12人死亡,北方邦最新统计为41人,拉贾斯坦邦为23人。
While farm hands working in the fields accounted for most of the deaths in MP, the list of victims in Rajasthan included at least two people — a brother-sister duo from Amritsar — who were out sightseeing when they were fatally struck by bolts of lightning. In UP, the state government announced Rs 4 lakh as ex gratia to the families of each of the deceased. Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot released Rs 1.6 crore for distribution of relief to the kin of those killed and for treatment of the injured.
中央邦的大部分死者都是在田里劳作的雇农,而拉贾斯坦邦的受害者名单上至少有两人——来自阿姆利则的一对兄妹——在外出观光时被闪电击中身亡。在北方邦,邦政府宣布向每位死者的家属发放40万卢比抚恤金。拉贾斯坦邦首席部长Ashok Gehlot发放了160万卢比,用于向遇难者家属发放救济款和治疗伤者。
According to official data, 11 of the 12 deaths in Jaipur were at the popular Amer fort. A 12-year-old boy died at Chanda Ki Dhani, a hamlet on the outskirts of Jaipur. “Kota reported 4 deaths, Dholpur 3 and Jhalawar, Baran, Sawai Madhopur and Tonk districts one each. Eight people in Kota and six in Sawai Madhopur were injured,” Kalpana Agarwal, joint secretary of disaster management and relief, said.
根据官方数据,在斋浦尔的12名死者中,有11人死于著名的阿米尔要塞。一名12岁的男孩在斋浦尔郊区的Chanda Ki Dhani村死亡。“Kota报告了4人死亡,Dholpur 3人,Jhalawar、Baran、Sawai Madhopur和Tonk区各一人。在Kota有8人受伤,Sawai Madhopur有6人受伤,”灾害管理和救济联合秘书Kalpana Agarwal说道。
Izhar Ali (23), one of the injured survivors in Jaipur, recalled taking out his cellphone exactly at 7.04pm to click a selfie atop the heritage watchtower in Amber when a flash of light, accompanied by an explosion, left him pulverised. Izhar said he managed to get up and looked for survivors. “We screamed for help, but no one could hear us from over the mountains,” he said.
伊兹哈尔·阿里(23岁)是斋浦尔的一名受伤的幸存者,他回忆说,就在晚上7点04分,他拿出手机在琥珀城的瞭望塔上自拍,一道闪电伴随着爆破声,把他震倒。伊兹哈尔说,他爬起来寻找幸存者。“我们大声呼救,但山那边没人能听到,”他说。
Besides sending teams to comb the area, the police used a drone camera to search for anyone who might be trapped in the gorges nearby. MP’s worst-affected area on Sunday was Shivpuri district, where four people died. Among the 10 people killed in the Gwalior-Chambal region in the past 36 hours, there were two fatherson pairs, officials said. UP’s casualty list included 14 deaths in Prayagraj alone.
除了派遣小组对该地区进行搜查外,警方还使用无人机摄像头搜寻可能被困在附近峡谷中的人。周日受影响最严重的地区是Shivpuri区,有4人死亡。官员称,过去36小时瓜廖尔-昌巴尔地区的10名遇难者中,有两对父子。北方邦的伤亡名单上仅Prayagraj就有14人死亡。

I was seeing on TV that these lightnings are due to global w/ climate c. Media needs to educate the public, appraise them. Giving out crores of rupees for such causes is going to cost us, very soon.
电视上说这些闪电是由于气候变化和全球变暖造成的。媒体需要教育公众,我们很快就会为此付出数亿卢比的代价。

It is foolish to step out or use phones when it is lightning!
在打雷的时候出门或使用手机是愚蠢的!

Yes, the PM Mr. Modi should have anticipated this and saved the 76. C'mon start blaming him.
莫迪总理应该预料到此事,并救下这76人。开始指责他吧。
Custodio Rodrigues
Why are these lightings, floods, earthquakes, hurricanes keep increasing day by day.
Its because greed is become too much in the world. Man feels he can do anything to damage the nature and get away with it.
为什么雷击、洪水、地震、气旋与日俱增。因为世界上的人越来越贪婪了。人类觉得自己可以肆意破坏大自然,并逃脱惩罚。

God is not doing this! Good or bad whatever is the effect of nature happens due to balance or dis-balance caused by species that are residing!
这不是上天干的!无论自然的影响是什么,好或坏,都是由于人类造成的失衡导致的!
