Heavy rains in Uttarakhand on Tuesday led to a devastating Dehradun cloudburst, causing landslides, flooding, and significant damage to roads, homes, and shops. The Sahastradhara area was among the worst affected, with two reported missing. Meanwhile, the overflowing Tamsa River flooded parts of the Tapkeshwar Mahadev Temple, though the inner shrine where the deity resides remained safe.
