A landslide killed a 24-year-old worker from Tripura in Serchhip, Mizoram on September 11, 2023. The landslide occurred at a road construction site about 122 km from Aizawl, where 24-year-old Dhahan John Reang and other labourers were working to widen a national highway. Earlier in June, a heavy rain triggered a massive landslide on National Highway-6 that links Mizoram with the rest of the country. The National Highways Authority of India immediately pressed into service heavy machinery to clear the debris, but it took several days to restore traffic movement on the highway.
