Uttarkashi, June 29 -- A severe landslide caused by heavy rainfall struck a labour camp at Silai Band on the Yamunotri Highway on Sunday, resulting in nine workers missing while ten others were rescued.

Officials confirmed that a 10-12 meter stretch of the highway was completely washed away, severely disrupting road connectivity and delaying immediate rescue operations.

According to officials, teams from the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), and local police rushed to the site and initiated relief and rescue operations immediately.

"Ten workers have been safely rescued and evacuated from the site. However, nine others are still missing and efforts are underway to locate them," said Uttarakha...
