Himachal Pradesh Disaster: Search Operation Underway To Find More Than 40 Missing People | ABP News

Himachal Pradesh, a state known for its picturesque landscapes and serene environment, is currently grappling with a severe natural disaster. The region has been hit by unprecedented heavy rainfall, leading to widespread devastation, including landslides, flash floods, and infrastructural damage. The situation has resulted in significant loss of life, displacement of residents, and severe disruption to daily life. The relentless monsoon rains have caused numerous landslides across various districts of Himachal Pradesh. The hilly terrain, already susceptible to erosion, has seen massive chunks of earth and rock slide down, blocking roads, damaging homes, and cutting off villages from essential services. Key highways and routes, including the strategic Shimla-Kalka highway, have been rendered impassable due to landslides, complicating rescue and relief operations.
