6 killed, dozens missing as massive landslide blocks river’s flow in Noney, Manipur
A massive landslide at a railway construction site in Manipur’s Noney district caused the death of at least six people and dozens were also reported missing. The incident took place at Tupul yard railway construction camp on Wednesday night.
“Six bodies have been retrieved so far and dozens are feared trapped under the debris,” officials said, adding rescue operations are under way. The massive debris has blocked the Ijei river, creating a reservoir that may inundate low-lying areas.
Rescue operation is under way at the site of a massive landslide at Tupul railway construction camp in Manipur’s Noney district on June 30, 2022.
An advisory issued by Noney Deputy Commissioner asked the public to take precautionary measures and ensure that children do not come near the river. “Whoever can evacuate are also advised to evacuate. Public are further advised to stay alert and be prepared for any assistance in case of rain condition deteriorate further,” the advisory said.
Travellers have been advised to avoid National Highway 37 due to multiple road blockages. Union Home Minister Amit Shah spoke to Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren Singh and Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw over the incident. He said a team of the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has reached the landslide site while two more teams are on their way.
Governor La Ganesan condoled the deaths and prayed for the speedy recovery of the injured. “The Governor of Manipur is deeply shocked to hear the sad news of landslide due to intermittent rain in the State...he conveys deepest condolences to the bereaved families and prays to God for speedy recovery of the injured persons,” a statement from Raj Bhavan at Imphal said.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi tweeted, “The news of a tragic landslide near Tupul Yard railway construction camp in Noney District, Manipur is extremely distressing. My condolences to the bereaved families who have lost their loved ones and prayers for speedy recovery of those injured.”
