Himachal farmers toss 1,500-kg of radishes into river due to blocked road
A viral video captures farmers discarding 1,500 kilograms of radishes into a river because the Himachal Pradesh government did not reopen the sole motorable road, which had been obstructed by a landslide for four days. The farmers felt forced to take this step as they were unable to get their produce to market before it began to rot. Following the circulation of the video, the Public Works Department managed to clear the route in just five hours on Thursday.
