Traffic On Chandigarh-Manali Highway Halted Due To Landslide
A significant landslide struck at 7 Mile, a few kilometers ahead of Mandi town toward Kullu on August 5, blocking traffic on the Chandigarh-Manali highway during heavy rainfall in Himachal Pradesh. The district government rerouted light vehicles traveling from Chandigarh to Kullu-Manali through Kataula in order to clear traffic. Small trucks from Kullu-Manali were being dispatched from Pandoh via Gohar-Chalchowk. Meanwhile, big trucks were not permitted to enter the area.
