Solan, August 12

Vehicular traffic on the Parwanoo-Dharampur section of the Chandigarh-Shimla road was closed after a landslide at Chakki Mor.

Heavy rain which lashed the area since Friday night led to a fresh landslide at Chakki Mor. This led to the closure of the temporary road carved out for light vehicles a few days ago.

Motorists have been advised to use arterial roads from Kala Amb-Nahan-Kumarhatti, Siswan-Baddi-Nalagarh-Kunihar-Shimla to avoid inconvenience.

Later, vehicular movement was restored for light vehicles after the debris was cleared.
