Early this morning, on the main road going down to Abu Road, a few heavy boulders got dislodged near Sathgoan Mount Abu and crashed onto the road. Thankfully, the complete road did not get blocked also there was not any mishap. The authorities immediately began clearing the road with their JCB machine and rock crackers. Abu has had its share of landslides over the years and has been fortunate that no major catastrophe has taken place.

Owing to the continuous and incessant rain, a part of the road going up to Gurushikar near Veerbapji Mandir collapsed. Luckily, no vehicle was plying at the time or there could have been a mishap. They shut the road down to traffic to determine the extent of the damage. After putting up safety barricades, the authorities allowed the traffic to continue via the safer side. 
A car that was heading towards Abu Road shot off the road near Chippaburry and plunged into the valley below. They rushed the police and ambulance services to the spot. They then rushed the five victims to the hospital, some in sad shape. Will keep you all updated as events unfold here at Mount Abu.

Yesterday all evening, there was a buildup of heavy clouds. Late at night, it began raining and by early morning it poured. Streams of Abu began gushing, and the waterfall was a delight to see.
