Hindu Pilgrims

Pilgrims are rescued in Uttarakhand state

                                         

The state's Chief Minister, Vijay Bahuguna, said 556 bodies had been seen floating or buried

in "slush", and that the army was working to recover them.

The worst affected area is around the holy town of Kedarnarth.

The Indian Army is leading rescue efforts

                                         

The floods have flattened homes and washed away roads and bridges

                           

On Friday, 40 bodies were recovered from the river Ganges

At least 560 are known to have been killed ...

Thousands are missing.

The death toll is expected to rise further.
