Himachal Flood Crisis
Thousands Displaced, Infrastructure Damaged
Continuous heavy rains and multiple landslides led to swollen rivers, particularly the Beas and Sutlej, causing roads and bridges to collapse.
Kullu, Manali, and Mandi districts are the worst affected. Thousands of homes have been submerged or destroyed in these regions.
Over 9,600 homes damaged. Families are staying in relief camps as rescue teams provide essential food, water, and medical aid.
Key highways, including Kullu-Manali, are blocked. Power outages and water supply disruption complicate rescue and relief efforts.
State and central governments are coordinating rescue operations. Helicopters and boats are deployed to evacuate stranded residents.
Authorities urge caution during monsoon. Long-term planning and early warning systems are essential to prevent future disasters.
