Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Central Government stands with Himachal in this hour of crisis.” For the past few days, Himachal had faced the brunt of natural disasters in the form of flashfloods, heavy rain and cloudbursts, he added.

Anurag said, “In the past few years, there has been a large increase in natural disasters in Himachal, which needs to be studied by experts.
