Glacier melt triggers flash flood in Lahaul-Spiti, 50 tourist vehicles stranded as road washed away

A sudden surge in glacier meltwater triggered a flash flood-like situation in Himachal Pradesh's Lahaul-Spiti district on Monday, washing away a section of the road at Jhalma Nallah and leaving more than 50 tourist vehicles stranded. The incident temporarily snapped road connectivity in the remote region which prompted immediate restoration work by the authorities. Officials clarified that the sudden rise in water flow was caused by accelerated glacier melt and not by rainfall, as no rain was reported in the area at the time of the incident. https://ift.tt/kpCRKEY
