Another cloudburst near Indian Army camp in Harsil of Uttarakhand

Even as the visuals and images of a devastating flash flood in the high altitude villages of Dharali in Uttarakhand's Uttarkashi district shocked the nation, another cloudburst was reported from Harsil in Uttarkashi, where an Indian Army Camp is located. 

"A massive mudslide struck Dharali village in the KheerGad area near Harsil, triggering sudden flow of debris and water through the settlement," a tweet from Surya Command of the Indian Army read.

A video showed water flowing down from the hill following a massive landslide. No deaths have been reported from the area so far. 

Troops of Ibex Brigade, the mountain brigade of the Indian Army,  were immediately mobilised and have reached the affected site in Harsil to assess the situation and undertake rescue operations.

"The Army stands resolute in support of our citizens during this natural calamity," the Command said in a tweet.

An Army team from Harsil is already at the site of the tragedy in Dharali in Uttarkashi where raging waters swept away several houses and left four people dead.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed condolences to people affected by the flash floods and assured that no stone is being left unturned in providing assistance.
