Himachal Shimla Landslide News: Cloudburst in Himachal Pradesh have caused mayhem in Himachal Pradesh, causing extensive destruction across the state. Cloudbursts occurred in several districts of Himachal Pradesh, causing flooding and extensive damage. At least two persons have been killed, while over 50 remain missing following the cloudbursts and flooding.
Himachal Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu stated that rescue and relief operations are currently underway.
"Very sad news has been received about more than 50 people missing due to a cloudburst in Rampur tehsil of Shimla, Padhar tehsil of Mandi district and Jaon, Nirmand villages of Kullu," CM Sukkhu said.
"Teams of NDRF, SDRF, Police, Home Guard and Fire Services are engaged in relief, search and rescue operations. The local administration has been instructed to carry out relief and rescue operations smoothly. I am in touch with the officials and monitoring the relief and rescue operations. The state government is committed to providing all possible assistance," he added.
A cloudburst in Shimla's Samej Khad area on Thursday left at least 36 persons missing, according to Shimla Deputy Commissioner (DC) Anupam Kashyap.
He added that the SDRF team has gone for the location.
Himachal Pradesh Revenue Minister Jagat Singh Negi earlier stated that 36 people have been reported missing in the Samej area of Shimla district.
"So far, 36 people have been reported missing in the Samej area of Shimla district. The Chief Minister has called an emergency meeting...many bridges have been damaged," said Jagat Singh Negi.
Another cloudburst has been reported in Mandi's Thaltukhod, Padhar area. According to Apoorv Devgan, Deputy Commissioner Mandi, one body has been recovered, but 11 persons are still missing.
Floods triggered due to cloudbursts washed away many houses. There has been a significant loss of life and property.
A major cloudburst in Himachal's Kullu caused a breach in the Malana Hydropower Project in Manikaran. The breach caused major floods and chaos in the valley.
The continuous rains worsened the situation, causing the Beas River to change its course near Manali. The river now flows onto the Chandigarh-Manali National Highway, which is now closed owing to landslides and flooding.
