Video: Massive landslide in Sikkim collapses Teesta Dam power house

A major landslide occurred at Dipu Dara near Singtam in East Sikkim, leading to the collapse of the two-story NHPC Power House 2 building.

The landslide occurred on Tuesday morning around 9 am. 

At the time of the incident, staff members were inside the power house, but it remains unclear how many were present or if there were any casualties. The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) has reached the site and is conducting rescue operations.

The debris from the landslide has blocked the Teesta River with boulders and mud, increasing the risk of flooding downstream. Officials have warned that once the blockage is cleared, the Bengal region may experience heavy water flow, potentially leading to further complications.
