The flash-flood incident near Uttarakhand’s Gaurikund on Kedarnath Yatra Route claimed four deaths with none missing.
Initially, a total of 13 people were reported missing, but subsequently four bodies were recovered.
Reportedly, the incident happened when a flash-flood in rain-fed waterfall swept away three shops around Daat Puliya near Gaurikund on way to Kedarnath.
Missing people include a family of ‘dandi-kandi’ (palanquin) operators from Nepal who ferry pilgrims to Kedarnath Temple.
As per reports, the shops, located on the banks of raging Mandakini River, were swept away by the flood-waters coming from above following heavy rains in Uttarakhand.
