Army Helicopter Rescues Two Men Stranded in Himachal Pradesh's Roon River
Two men stranded in the swollen Roon River in Himachal Pradesh's Sirmaur district were rescued by an Army helicopter after local rescue attempts failed due to strong currents. Banarasi Das was trapped while grazing buffaloes when water levels surged, and Anshul, who tried to save him, also became stranded. Rescue teams from police, administration, fire department, and ITBP coordinated the operation, which was supervised by local officials and completed safely in the evening.
