Landslide Damages Fuel Station Near Assam-Meghalaya Border, No Injuries ReportedPreviousNext

A large landslide struck the Jorabat 10-Mile area near the Assam-Meghalaya border early Friday, damaging a petrol pump and two vehicles but causing no injuries. The hillside collapse sent earth and debris onto the fuel station premises, prompting officials to assess the risk of further soil movement. Local residents and reports highlighted concerns over ongoing hill cutting in the area, which may contribute to slope instability during heavy rains.
