Chamoli, Aug. 25 -- Residents of Tharali tehsil in Uttarakhand's Chamoli district are facing severe challenges after a cloudburst on August 23 triggered a landslide, burying homes and damaging infrastructure.

An entire house was filled with debris in the landslide that followed the cloudburst. Restoration work is now underway to repair the damaged infrastructure.

Local resident Bhaskar Pandey said it would be difficult to return to normal life. "After continuous rainfall on August 22, there was a loud explosion, and we ran away. The landslide filled our house with debris. The local administration and police asked us to move to a safe spot. They are helping us, but it will be a challenge to go back to normalcy," Pandey told ANI.
