UTTARAKHAND is grappling with the aftermath of a devastating cloudburst that struck the Baligarh area on the Barkot-Yamunotri road Saturday night, sweeping away at least 20 labourers from an under-construction hotel site, killing at least three of them. The rescue teams have so far managed to save 11 of the labourers, and the other six are still missing.
