The upper reaches of Dhauladhars and Chhota and Bara Bhangal have been experiencing heavy snowfall for the past 20 hours.
Rain and snow have crippled life in the region. Many parts of Palampur, Baijnath, Jaisinghpur and adjoining areas remained without power following a snag in the 33kV transmission line, which feeds many parts of Kangra. The supply was restored after an hour though.
