13+ Dead Due To Heavy Snowfall in India
At least 13 people have died in Uttarakhand, India after heavy, early-season snowfall battered the mountainous region, local officials said on Thursday.
The dead include three porters working for the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) who were posted along the India-China border in Uttarkashi district, and ten trekkers. While an additional six others remain missing, reports hindustantimes.com.
District disaster officer Devendra Patwal said rescue teams spotted five of the bodies near Lamkhaga Pass on Thursday morning.
“The bodies will soon be airlifted from the spot,” he said. “The rescue workers managed to rescue one of the trekkers who was found alive there. He has been shifted to the army hospital in the district.”
