Tragically, four fatalities have been confirmed due to the floods, which were triggered by a sudden cloudburst. Fortunately, around 130 individuals have been safely evacuated. Chief Minister Pushkar Dhami took to the skies to survey the affected area from a helicopter. "The rescue operations are in full swing. Teams from the army, ITBP, and SDRF are on-site. We've managed to rescue about 70-80 people... However, a road has been blocked, and both the District Magistrate and a senior police officer are en route to the location. It's a tough situation, especially with the rain still coming down," he shared with PTI Videos.
