Recent events

In February 2023, Dalwah village was affected by a subsidence incident in the nearby Duksar village.[4] A major chunk of land collapsed, damaging about two dozen houses, including a stretch of the Gool road. This incident left dozens of people homeless and blocked the Sangaldan-Gool road. It occurred shortly after the 2023 Thathri land subsidence in the region.[5]

Experts have suggested that the land sinking observed in Dalwah village of Ramban may be attributed to factors such as water seepage, extensive cutting of steep slopes, and other reasons.[6]
