Deaths at Rohtang Pass

More dead bodies have been found on Rohtang Pass.

The rescue and search team of the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Institute of Mountaineering and Allied Sports at Manali recovered four more bodies near Rahni nullah, about 45 km from here, near the Rohtang Pass, today. These persons also died due to high velocity winds and severe cold conditions while crossing the Rohtang Pass.

Most of the Rohtang Pass victims were migrant labourers from Jharkhand who were stranded in Lahaul valley due to early and heavy snowfall on November 9.

The rescue team had again launched a search and rescue operation today and retrieved these four bodies.

Manali DSP Ashish Sharma said the retrieved bodies were brought to Manali by a rescue team this evening. He further said the bodies could not be identified so far and the post-mortem would be conducted tomorrow.
