The landslip occurred at night.
A massive landslip near Harle estate in Sakleshpur, in Hassan district of Karnataka, swept away a portion of the road that serves as an alternative to the Bengaluru-Mangaluru highway. The landslip occurred at night on July 29. The landslip disrupted road network to many villages in the taluk.
The Bengaluru-Mangaluru highway has seen multiple landslips in recent weeks.
Earlier on July 26, many places in Sakleshpur taluk were inundated following heavy rains. Roads were flooded and many two-wheelers were submerged at Azad Nagar, a locality in Sakleshpur town, as Hemavathi river was swollen.
Movement of vehicles between Sakleshpur town and Krishnapur village was disrupted after a bridge on the road was flooded.
