Another rain spell causes flooding, landsliding
CHITRAL: As another wet spell lashed the northern parts of the country, flooding and landsliding blocked roads in different parts of Chitral on Sunday.
Heavy rain continued most of the day and caused flooding in streams and dry nullahs besides bringing chill to the weather. Over three inch of snowfall was also reported on the approach roads to the Lowari tunnel.
High flooding in Kaldam Gol in Drosh and Ashiret blocked the main Chitral-Dir road for hours, stranding hundreds of vehicles for hours.
The office of the deputy commissioner Lower Chitral said that the road was reopened by the evening and the stranded passengers were shifted to safer places during the closure of the road.
Moreover, a landsliding blocked the Chitral-Mastuj road at Nerdit, where a large number of passengers also remained stranded.
It may be noted here that a few weeks back, heavy rain and snowfall caused widespread damages to public and private property across Chitral besides damaging roads and bridges.
