Landslip in Nilgiris district

Description
-
Heavy rains in the Nilgiris district have caused significant disruptions, including landslips that blocked the Mettupalayam-Coonoor road and delayed the Nilgiris Mountain Rail service. A temporary bridge was washed away, completely halting traffic between Mettupalayam and Coonoor, with diversions implemented via Kotagiri. Additionally, a tree fell on a house in Ulikkal, but fortunately, no injuries were reported. While some road traffic resumed later, repairs remain temporary as more rain is expected in the area, affecting local infrastructure and safety.
