An official says flash floods and landslides triggered by torrential rains have killed at least seven people in northern India. District official R. Ramesh says 19 other people - all construction workers - are missing and may have been washed away by floods that swept the Himalayan foothills in Uttarakhand state. Ramesh said Saturday that the men were working on a hydro-electric project. There has been incessant rain in the state since late Thursday and rivers are overflowing their banks, according to a report of the Associated Press.
