Searching and rescue operations by joint teams of national and state forces for reaction to disasters, police and domestic guards to seek six missing people after Cloudbursts and Flash floods in Himachal Pradesh renewed on Friday (June 27, 2025) in the morning.
These people fear that they were swept on cloudbursts and Flash Floods in the Kangra and Kulle Himachal Pradesh districts on Wednesday (June 25, 2025).
So far, the project in the Kangra district was hit by five bodies on Wednesday (June 25, 2025), while the search for three missing people is hit by Flash Floods in the Kangra district. Teams are also looking for three people who have disappeared into Bihal in the Kulle district after Cloudburst, the officials said.
The search began for the missing three people at 6:30 in the morning near Manuni Khad in the village of Khaniyara, he said on Friday (June 27, 2025) Adm Kangra Shilpa Bect. The operation was suspended until 21:30, the task is difficult, because the weather is bad, topography is hard and there are no mobile signals on the spot, she added.
Beautiful from the Chamba district, which the search teams rescued from the forest near the project site, said there were 13 people in the camp, five of whom ran towards the hills, while the remaining were swept through the trembling waters.
“We saw the floods coming and screaming to warn people down before they fled to safety,” said Daya Kishan, a worker.
Project works were suspended due to the rain and the workers rested in temporary shelters near the site, when they diverted the flood waters from Manuni Khad and nearby drains, several officials said. Commander of the National Reaction to Disaster (NDRF) Baljinder Singh claimed that he was trying to trace people who feared that they were taken away from the project.
Meanwhile, the BJP of the Dharamshala Sudhir Sharma claimed that the shelters were built near the stream, not moving the workers to safer areas when the weather got worse on negligence, which should be probed.
