The road is blocked at 20 points and the people of the villagers are bracing tough times. It is getting difficult for them to procure essential commodities and evacuate patients who require emergency medical attention, the DIRPO said.
The locals are at present managing all their needs through foot marches, however, that too has been made difficult due to the landslides triggered by heavy rain, the release added.
