There seems to be no end to the miseries and trauma of cloud-burst survivors even after five days of the tragedy and a total of missing persons still missing after the incidents that also triggered flash floods and erasing of Samej village, bordering districts of Shimla and Kullu.

So far only 10 bodies have been recovered even as the rescue workers including army, state police, home guards, and CISF, ITBP and NDRF personnel engaged in a massive rescue operation.

The army has also deployed sniffer dogs to trace the missing persons washed away by the flash flood or having been buried under the mud-slush and debris including rock boulders.
