Uttarakhand Rains: Visuals this morning showed men, women and children being evacuated by the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF).
As heavy rain and landslides blocked connectivity to Uttarakhand's Nainital, one of the country's most popular mountain getaways, scores of stranded tourists had to trek their way to safety on Tuesday.
Visuals this morning showed men, women and children being evacuated by the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF). The tourists were seen walking with their belongings on a hillside ravaged by three-day rain that caused rockfalls and landslides, cutting off roads in Nainital.
In images shared by NDRF chief SN Pradhan, rescuers were seen guiding tourists on a hilly path.
Personnel in orange suits were also seen carrying young children.
