AN avalanche has blocked the Gangotri National Highway in Uttarakhand's Uttarkashi, cutting off several villages from their tehsil and district headquarters. There have been no reports of casualties or property damage, but the highway is completely snow-covered.
The incident marks the third avalanche in the region within a month. Uttarkashi District Disaster Management Officer Jai Prakash Singh Pawar said Saturday that ongoing snowfall is complicating efforts to reopen the national highway. "As soon as the snowfall ceases, we will prioritize clearing the highway," he said.
