Devastating floods kill at least 22 and washes away houses in India

The Metro says this is the moment people in southern India watched on in horror as a house fell into floodwaters on Sunday.

Heavy rain has been lashing the state of Kerala over the past few days, leading to at least 20 deaths.

The house, situated on an embankment, tips backwards into the river and then disappears underwater in the dramatic footage from the city of Kottayam.

Drenched locals looked on helplessly as the property was swept away, before walking along a path to follow its progress downstream.
