Heavy rainfall lashed Uttarakhand’s Dehradun district on Monday night which led to the swelling of the Tamsa river and flooding the Tapkeshwar Mahadev temple – one of the most visited shrines in the city. As per the information, water entered the temple courtyard and rose up to the Hanuman idol, though the sanctum sanctorum remained safe. Officials confirmed that flash floods were reported in several parts of Dehradun following the cloudburst.
