Massive floods have continued to wreak havoc in northeastern India's Sikkim state.

Mangan, Pakyong, Namchi and Gangtok districts were particularly badly hit on October 4.

Shocking scenes showed the damage caused.

Severe rainfall led to the overflowing of the Teesta river, washing away parts of National Highway 10, along with several bridges and other structures.

The river was turned into a raging torrent surrounded by landslides, and nearby areas were innundated.

In Chungthang, a town in Mangan district, water from a river overflowed and entered into a residential area where it caused widespread wreckage.

Army officials rescued a man who was trapped underneath a collapsed building. He was saved by officials using an excavator.
