India, Oct. 8 -- Twenty five tribals belonging to the Bakarwal community were rescued by the Army after they were trapped in a snowstorm with their livestock in the upper reaches of Doda district in Jammu and Kashmir, officials said on Tuesday.

Dozens of tribal families were on their traditional seasonal migration trail from the high-altitude meadows of Padder, Marwah, Dachan and Warwan areas of Kishtwar, via Bhaderwah, towards Kathua, Jammu and Samba districts, when they were caught in unseasonal snowfall.
