Assam riders faced heavy rains, mud‑filled roads and landslides while traveling through Nagaland, as captured in a viral video.
A group of riders from Assam were seen navigating a stretch of road in Nagaland that had been severely impacted by recent heavy rainfall. The video, which has gone viral, shows the cyclists struggling through mud‑filled lanes and broken sections of the highway, with several landslides blocking their path.
The torrential rains that have battered the Northeast region for weeks have turned many rural roads into quagmires. In Nagaland, the combination of saturated soil and sudden downpours has caused multiple landslides, leaving travelers stranded or forcing them to detour.
Local authorities have urged caution and advised motorists to avoid the affected routes until the situation improves. The incident underscores the growing impact of extreme weather on transportation infrastructure in the region.
