Meanwhile, the road at Deol near Sudhmahadev, which was completely blocked due to cloud burst and consequent landslides in the area, was partially opened today for light vehicles.
The road was badly damaged due to last evening cloudburst and heavy rainfall, which also damaged Deol temple. Even as men and machinery were pressed into service, the road blockage could not be cleared. The work on the road is on and is likely to be cleared by tomorrow morning.
