A tragedy has unfolded in Uttarakhand, with initial information indicating an unknown expanse of the disaster. Roads leading to Dharali and Harsil are completely blocked, and the aerial route is also inaccessible. SDRF, NDRF teams, the local brigade, and the army are engaged in rescue operations. The Kheer Ganga river has breached its banks, consuming a village in its path. Concerns are raised about unsafe construction, particularly homestays, in vulnerable locations. Experts note that such places should not be permitted for construction. In recent research, Indian scientists published a paper in 2023 based on 500-year data, stating that while the trend of rainfall in the Uttarakhand Himalaya is decreasing, extreme events are increasing day by day. The situation draws comparisons to the 2013 Uttarakhand tragedy. There is a discussion regarding the nature of the event, with some suggesting it was a widespread fast rain and landslide rather than a cloud burst, due to continuous rain and soil damage. Drainage areas getting chopped and heavy moisture are cited as contributing factors. #uttarakhanddisaster #kheerganga #uttarkashicloudburst #itwebvideos #flashfloods #landslide #extremeweather #climatechange #rescueops #disaster #naturalcalamity #unsafeconstruction #riverbreach #himalaya #weatherpatterns #emergency
