Video: Landslide buries two parked cars in Shimla amid heavy rain

Two parked cars were buried under rocks and debris after a landslide struck the Rajhana area on the outskirts of Shimla on Saturday amid heavy rainfall in Himachal Pradesh. Dramatic visuals from the site showed the vehicles crushed under massive boulders after a hillside gave way, though no casualties were reported. The landslide came as moderate to heavy rain battered the state, triggering multiple weather-related incidents, including the collapse of a bailey bridge installed last year near Sangla bus stand and floodwater inundating a single-storeyed house while threatening several others in Kinnaur district. The local weather department said Nahan recorded the highest rainfall at 158.9 mm since Friday evening, while the India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a yellow alert for moderate to heavy rain at isolated places in Shimla, Kullu, Chamba, Bilaspur and Sirmaur districts.
