Kohima, Aug 31 (IBNS): Even as the entire nation is focused on the Kerala floods, the north eastern state of Nagaland has also witnessed floods due to heavy rains which resulted in the death of 12 people.

About thousands of people have been left homeless due to the floods.

There have been widespread damages caused to several houses and roads.

Owing to the loss to life and property, Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio has sought the help of the Centre to recover from the situation.

Tweeted Rio: "#Nagaland needs your #help. Incessant rain has caused floods & landslides in several parts of the state & have affected many. #Relief #helpinghand #NorthEast @PMOIndia @narendramodi @HMOIndia @rajnathsingh @KirenRijiju @MDoNER_India @DrJitendraSingh."
