The death toll due to the landslide on the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra route has risen to 33. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has expressed grief over this incident and has announced all possible help. He has wished for the speedy recovery of the injured in this accident. Rescue work is going on on the Yatra route.

 

In addition, three devotees were swept away after a car fell into Chenani Nala in Jammu. Out of the three missing devotees, two are from Dholpur in Rajasthan and one is from Agra. Due to the rain that continued since Sunday, the roads and bridges of Jammu could not withstand the flood-like conditions that arose in the city.

 

With this, the road and rail connectivity of Jammu with the country was completely cut off. In view of the possibility of heavy rain on Tuesday night, the administration had also banned leaving the houses without any reason after 9 pm. All rivers including Tawi, Chenab, Ujj are flowing above the danger mark.

 

One lane of the Bhagwatinagar bridge, built on the Tawi River in Jammu, collapsed, while movement on two other bridges built on this river has been stopped as a precaution. Traffic on the Jammu-Pathankot National Highway was already affected due to the collapse of the bridge near Kathua.

 

Now, the Devika bridge near AIIMS in Vijaypur on this highway has also been damaged. After this, the road traffic was completely closed. In Samba, army personnel have safely rescued seven people of the nomadic Gujjar community from the river. A holiday has been declared on 27th August in all the schools and colleges of the Jammu division.
