Hundreds of vehicles have become stranded in Manali and Solang Valley due to heavy snowfall, leading to a major traffic disruption. The snowfall, which began in the early hours, caused a sudden accumulation of snow on the roads, making it difficult for vehicles to move. The situation has worsened as many tourists, who were heading to the popular hill stations for a winter getaway, found themselves stuck for hours.
In a viral video circulating on social media, a tourist, visibly frustrated by the chaos, is seen advising others not to come to the region. “Mat aana,” the tourist says, which translates to “don’t come.” The video quickly gained attention as it highlighted the difficulties faced by those stranded in the snow. The tourist in the video urged people to reconsider their travel plans, pointing out the challenges posed by the unexpected weather conditions.
Local authorities and rescue teams are working hard to clear the roads, but the ongoing snowfall continues to hinder their efforts. The snow, which has been falling relentlessly, has also affected essential services in the area. Electricity supply in some parts has been disrupted, and tourists have been advised to stay indoors for their safety.
Despite the picturesque winter landscape, the heavy snowfall has created significant problems for locals and visitors alike. The region, known for its stunning views and adventure sports, often attracts large numbers of tourists during the winter season. However, this recent snowfall has served as a reminder of the unpredictability of mountain weather, with tourists now facing considerable inconvenience.
As authorities work to restore normalcy, those stranded are being urged to remain patient and follow safety guidelines. Meanwhile, many tourists are reconsidering their travel plans, as the viral video’s message echoes through social media platforms.
