More than 650 hectares of Uttarakhand land in grip of forest fires
Though no loss of life has been reported so far, officials say with the rise in mercury level the blaze is going out of control.
Two persons were killed and three critically injured on Friday when a car fell in a deep gorge in Uttarakhand’s Lohaghat town, police said.
The car was returning from a wedding when the driver lost control at a steep turn causing the vehicle to fall into the gorge.
