In the aftermath of a terrible cloudburst in Himachal Pradesh’s Sirmaur district, a tragic occurrence occurred in which a family of five was fatally buried in debris. The tragedy, which took place in the early hours of August 10, has shocked the area and brought attention to the ruthless power of nature and its devastating repercussions.
According to officials, five family members may be trapped under a house’s wreckage. According to media sources, Kuldeep Singh’s home, who is employed by the Public Works Department, has collapsed. Singh, his wife Jeeto Devi, Rajni Devi, Nitesh, and Deepika are among those suspected to be trapped.
According to reports, a cloudburst struck the Poanta Sahib region of Himachal Pradesh’s Sirmaur district on Wednesday night, causing water to enter several homes in the Malagi Dadiyat village.
The state emergency operation center reports that the cloudburst significantly damaged properties in Malagi Dadiyat. Search and rescue activities were quickly organized by local authorities and rescue teams, including the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), to the location.
Since the beginning of the monsoon on June 24, the hill state has experienced 223 fatalities due to rain, floods, and landslides combined.
“223 people have died and 295 have been injured in Himachal Pradesh so far. Another 7,500 homes have had partial damage, while up to 800 homes have sustained complete destruction. Numerous local organizations, schools, and community centers also suffered damage, according to state revenue minister Jagat Singh Negi.

According to Sukhu, the Union government has released 189 crore out of 315 crore that had been held up under the National Disaster Relief Fund for the previous few years as a result of audit objections.
