Uttarakhand: Police urge people to not venture near riverbanks

On Monday, the Uttarakhand Police issued a warning to residents not to approach riverbanks due to the State’s ongoing heavy rainfall.

Chamoli police took to microblogging site ‘X’, formerly known as Twitter, to state “Due to the rains in the mountains, the water level of the rivers has increased continuously, due to which frequent landslides are happening at the places along the banks of the river. Chamoli police request you to avoid such places and people living on the banks of the river should be alert.”
The official Twitter handle of Chamoli police also tweeted a video of a person falling into the river due to a landslide to warn people.
