JAMMU, Apr 21: Eight Army columns, each with a strength of 1/1/18, are on standby at key locations in the cloudburst-affected areas of Ramban district in Jammu. Quick Reaction Teams (QRTs) from Banihal, Karachial, Digdaul, Maitra, and Chanderkote have been swiftly mobilised to assist in providing relief to affected civilians and stranded passengers.
“Following the cloudburst and subsequent landslides, Quick Reaction Teams from Banihal, Karachial, Digdaul, Maitra, and Chanderkote were immediately deployed to provide relief to stranded passengers in Ramban,” said PRO Defence Lt. Col. Sunnel Bartwal.
Army personnel have been actively engaged in distributing tea and hot meals, offering temporary shelter, and providing basic medical aid to those in need, following the devastation caused by the heavy rainfall, cloudburst, and landslides in Ramban.
“Eight Army columns are on standby at strategic locations in the affected areas of Ramban to assist the local population,” Lt. Col. Bartwal confirmed.
In response to the cloudburst and intense rainfall that hit Ramban district, the Indian Army has launched coordinated relief and restoration efforts aimed at assisting civilians and restoring connectivity along the National Highway 44 (NH44).
After assessing the ground situation, the Army initiated prompt action in coordination with the civil administration, including the District Commissioner (DC), Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), and the Superintendent of Traffic.
Although no formal requisition has been made for emergency assistance, civil authorities have assured that the Army will be called upon for support as needed, Lt. Col. Bartwal added.
Meanwhile, civilian construction companies, including KRCL, CPPL, and DMR, have mobilized JCBs and heavy equipment to begin clearing the obstructed highway. According to initial assessments, it may take up to 48 hours to clear the road and restore traffic flow.
