Watch: River swallows several cars in Manali, scary footage surfaces
- Incessant rain in Himachal Pradesh has caused havoc damaging roads and several cars over the last few days.
Himachal Pradesh along with several other states across the northern part of India has been witnessing incessant rainfall over the last few days. As a result, several areas of the Himalayan state have faced landslides and flash floods, damaging road infrastructure, houses and other properties as well. Several people have been killed as well. Viral videos that emerged online have revealed how flash floods and landslides have damaged several cars in multiple places across Himachal Pradesh.
The latest video has emerged online showing multiple cars parked at an area in Manali, the popular tourist destination and one of the key cities in the state are being swept away by the Beas River. The video shows multiple cars being washed away by the river like toys. As it looks, the cars were parked in a low-lying area, where the water level increased suddenly and the force of the water swallowed them before their owners were able to take the vehicles to safer places. However, it is not clear if anyone has been injured or died because of this.
