An entire stretch of road washed away in the valley below after a massive landslide in Sirmaur district of Himachal Pradesh.
The video shows a large part of a hilltop collapsing as boulders and rocks roll downhill, taking with them a stretch of road and uprooting trees. There has been no confirmation of any loss of life in the landslide in the remote part of Sirmaur so far.
A series of cloudbursts, flash floods and landslides have been reported from the region over the past few days.
The road, according to officials, connected two points called Paonta Sahib and Shillai-Hatkori. The National Highway 707 is blocked due to the landslide.
Traffic has been closed in the area and policemen posted at the entry points to warn people to take different routes. According to reports, the landslide took place near Nahan town. As many as 175 tourists are stranded in Lahaul-Spiti in the state after a cloudburst and landslides triggered by heavy rain.
