Among the missing are at least eight soldiers from a nearby army base.
Rescue workers are battling heavy rain and blocked roads after at least four people were killed and dozens reported missing after flash floods and landslides swept through parts of India’s northern Himalayan state of Uttarakhand.
The flood struck Dharali, a village in Uttarkashi district and a popular stop on the way to the Hindu pilgrimage town of Gangotri, after a sudden surge of muddy water mixed with debris engulfed the valley on Tuesday.
The flooding was triggered by intense monsoon rains, which continued to lash the region into Wednesday, complicating rescue efforts.
Al Jazeera understands that among the missing are at least eight soldiers from a nearby army base, while more than 190 people have been rescued.
