JAMMU: The toll from devastating floods in Jammu & Kashmir has crossed 200 even as surging waters began to recede on Tuesday.

Officials said the toll was feared to go up further as the extent of the damage was likely to be clearer in the coming days after the water recedes completely for authorities to assess the situation.

Rescue operations continued to be hampered as large parts of the state continued to be cut off from the outside world and reachable only by air.
