Shimla: As many as 11 people got stranded in a cable car that stopped midway in Himachal Pradesh’s Parwanoo this afternoon.
Soon after the incident, a rescue operation was launched.
Meanwhile, another cable car has been deployed for their rescue and the police are monitoring the operation, said sources.
According to reports, two people, including one woman and one man, have been rescued by the staff of the resort. All those stranded are tourists from Delhi.
Notably, in April this year, three people had died after tourists were stuck in cable cars in Jharkhand’s Deoghar district for more than 40 hours following a technical snag. Altogether, 50 people had been rescued from the cable cars after a malfunction on the 770-m ropeway to the Trikut Hills, a popular tourist spot.
