On May 31, 2025, seven people, including two women and two children, were killed in a massive landslide on National Highway-13 in Arunachal Pradesh's East Kameng district. The incident occurred between the Bana-Seppa stretch, a known landslide-prone area, when a Maruti car traveling towards Seppa was swept away by a rain-triggered landslide and plunged into a gorge. Rescue teams later recovered the bodies. The tragedy highlights the vulnerability of the region during the monsoon season, which often brings heavy rainfall leading to such disasters. Officials have expressed condolences and emphasized the need for caution during this period. (PC: LOKMAT TIMES)
