Uttarakhand landslide- As Uttarakhand continues to face nature’s wrath in the form of torrential rains, cloudbursts, landslides, and flash-floods, BJP MP Anil Baluni on Thursday shared a terrifying video capturing the devastation. The video features a landslide occurring in one of the disaster affected areas of the state, recorded on Wednesday evening by the MP himself. Sharing the video, Baluni wrote that cloudburst and landslides this year have caused such severe damage to the state that it will take a long time to heal and redevelop.
In a post shared on X, the BJP MP from Garhwal constituency praised the NDRF-SDRF personnel, the administration, and the workers for their efforts in challenging circumstances. He appreciated their dedication at a time when Uttarakhand is grappling with a disaster and prayed for everyone’s safety. The video shows him stopping when he saw a landslide on the way. He got out of his car and was urging others to follow him when the landslide struck the mountain with such force that even Baluni panicked and ran back.
उत्तराखंड में इस वर्ष आई भीषण अतिवृष्टि और भूस्खलन ने इतने गहरे घाव दिए हैं, जिन्हें भरने में बहुत समय लगेगा।
