Kullu Manali Flood Disaster | August 2025 | Heavy rain and flood situati...

हिमाचल प्रदेश का मशहूर हिल स्टेशन मनाली इस बार लगातार बारिश और ग्लेशियर पिघलने की वजह से आई बाढ़ से बुरी तरह प्रभावित हुआ है। Set on the banks of the Beas River, Manali—once a bustling town in the Kullu Valley and a gateway to Leh through the Rohtang Pass—stands in stark contrast to its old-world charm. But this monsoon, Manali presents a grim picture of nature’s fury. Torrential rains, which triggered massive flash floods, devastation, and landslides, have left the hill town with many new scars and the deepest wounds. Cut off from the rest of the country, the city lies battered, smashed, and heartbroken. The strategic National Highway, a vital route connecting the country to Leh and frequently used by tourists driving to Rohtang, Lahaul Valley, and high-altitude passes, has collapsed. The floods have swept away bridges, erased houses, and reduced hotels, bars, and restaurants to rubble. The Beas River has deserted most of its busy wayside eateries and tourist places. Tourists wait in their hotels, hoping for an early restoration of connectivity, while more than 2,500 vehicles remain stranded. Mobile and internet networks remain snapped. The incident has exacerbated the difficulties faced by stranded tourists and locals, as they are unable to communicate with their families. Some areas are also experiencing power outages. The picture is gloomy everywhere. The sight of parked vehicles floating in the raging river, some submerged by the water, and others crashing into the fury due to the roads’ collapse, is terrifying. Incessant rain for 48 hours in Himachal Pradesh has led to devastating floods, with the River Beas in full spate causing significant damage. इस व्लॉग में हमने आपको ग्राउंड लेवल से दिखाया है कि कैसे ब्यास नदी (Beas River) उफान पर है और किन-किन जगहों पर इसका असर साफ नज़र आ रहा है। the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) had sounded a 'red' alert for Chamba, Kangra, and Mandi,Kullu, warning of extremely heavy rainfall over the next 48 hours. (between 24th August and 31st August) While Mandi and Kullu saw a brief respite with clearer skies on Wednesday, authorities remain on high alert as rivers swell and landslide-prone slopes remain unstable.
