Video - Massive Landslide - Manali Chandigarh Highway Blocked !


This video went viral on YouTube and Facebook today, some onlookers recorded this massive landslide which blocked the very busy Manali Chandigarh Highway near Hanogi temple ahead of Mandi. 

The video shows the whole mountain side collapsing on the road and the river below. at one point it seems the river is going to be blocked with all the debris falling above. As rocks and mud fall down a massive dust cloud  runs towards the onlookers and they have to run away to keep a safe distance.

Amazingly no casualties were reported , even as  news channels reported some vehicles getting damaged by the falling rocks.

 Even as PWD workers, moved in immediately to clear the roads and make temporary repairs to  restart the the traffic flow, the highway is still blocked, and  hundreds of vehicles and passengers  are waiting  for the roads to clear.
