Landslide Triggers Alarm in Tosh Village, Evacuation Underway to Prevent Disaster
A massive landslide behind Tosh village in Manikaran Valley has blocked the Jeera Nala, raising fears of a potential disaster for the village and a nearby power project. Authorities have launched evacuation efforts to protect residents and prevent any catastrophic events.
Officials report that the blockage has led to water accumulation, heightening the risk of flash floods and additional landslides. In response, disaster management teams are actively relocating people from high-risk zones to safer areas. The administration is closely monitoring the situation, as a sudden surge in water pressure could result in an uncontrolled release, posing a significant threat to settlements and infrastructure downstream. Experts are assessing possible solutions to restore the natural flow and minimize potential damage.
Residents have been urged to stay vigilant, while emergency teams remain on high alert for any further developments. Authorities are working closely with disaster response agencies to mitigate risks and ensure the safety of those in affected areas.
