New Delhi: Among the 10 students of a government school in a Himachal Pradesh village who went missing following flash floods triggered by a cloudburst on Wednesday night, four are promising sports stars – two state-level volleyball players and two district-level shuttlers.
They are all students of Government Senior Secondary School in Samej village near Shimla.
Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu also visited the village and met the students of the school. The students sought the Chief Minister’s assistance to locate their missing schoolmates.
The flash floods wreaked widespread destruction in the Kullu, Mandi and Shimla regions of Himachal Pradesh. A senior official told the news agency PTI that over sixty houses in the region were washed away and several villages were severely affected by the floods.
Relief and rescue operations are currently on in flood-affected areas, including Samej village near Rampur in Shimla.
