Himachal continues to reel under the horror of landslides. A massive landslide in Lahaul and Spiti district has blocked the flow of the Chandrabhaga river.

The incident has led to the formation of a lake that poses a threat to agricultural fields and the nearly 2,000 people living in villages in the area.

No fatalities or injuries have been reported so far.

A video of the landslide shows a large section of a steep hill caving in and dumping a massive load of soil, rocks and other debris on the Chandrabhaga river.

Himachal Pradesh has been hit by a number of landslides in the past few weeks that have resulted in several deaths. 14 people have died after a landslide in Kinnaur on Wednesday that left several vehicles trapped.
