Viral video: A huge part of a road caved in on Saturday on the Jammu-Srinagar highway as heavy rains continue to lash India. A viral video of the incident has also gone viral on social media.
The video shows the road connecting two tunnels on the national highway washed away in the landslides.
Heavy rain caused this, and various portions of the Ramban district have been cut off.
In addition, travel on the Jammu-Srinagar national highway and the Mughal Road was temporarily halted due to many landslides caused by heavy overnight rainfall.
Weather forecasters anticipate widespread moderate to heavy rainfall with thundershowers across Jammu and Kashmir until Sunday due to monsoon winds and western disturbances.
For today and tomorrow, the meteorological department in Himachal has upped the "orange" alert to "red" for isolated spells of extremely heavy rainfall in the districts of Chamba, Kangra, Kullu, Mandi, Una, Hamirpur, and Bilaspur.
Isolated spells of extremely heavy rain are anticipated in Shimla, Sirmaur, and Solan districts, with isolated spells of heavy rain possible in Lahaul and Spiti.
