Hindustan Times  

Bhagat, who goes by a single name, is one of the many JCB operators and has been working on Beas. The most picturesque and enchanting river suffered maximum damage in the floods last year. In July 2023, a catastrophic natural calamity struck Kullu and several other regions of Himachal Pradesh, causing devastating damage to the beautiful river. The entire river plain is unrecognisable, and the damage is particularly severe in areas such as Manali, Aloo Ground, Patli Kuhal, Raison, Devdham, Bhuntar, and Manikaran valley. According to the report from the district mining office, more than 99,328 MT metric tonnes of debris has been cleared from the 10 sectors at Hathithan, the confluence of river Beas, and Parvati at Bhuntar.
