The seriousness of the situation can be gauged from the video of a luxury bus being washed away in the flooded Beas river. 

Thankfully, there were no passengers inside but it does look very scary.

Additionally, the rain also left two people stranded in the NHPC colony and were rescued with the help of the Indian Air Force. 

Himachal Pradesh has been receiving heavy rainfall since Saturday, with Naina Devi town recording the highest– 178.2 mm of rainfall.
