Uttarkashi: Landslide takes the exam at Step Up to Dharali, Landing Land - Landslide in Uttarkashi Wadia Institute Explaining reasons why gangotri -highway is at risk

The disaster attracted the attention of scientists in Dharahali of Uttarkashi. According to the Wadia Himalayan Institute, there are 15 landslide areas between Maneri and Dharali on the Gangotri highway. The cause of landslides is also a geographical factors with excess rainfall. The mountains of the region are weak and the flow of the river hollows out the base. The cutting of trees and unplanned construction can lead to further serious conditions. Suman Semwal, Jagran Uttarkashi. Dharali’s disaster once again attracted the attention of scientists to the geographical sensitivity of Uttarkashi. It is such a sensitivity, thereby impeding the acceleration of relief and rescue operations to the disaster area. This obstacle is 15 major landslides from Maneri to Dharali on Gangotri Highway. The road on these parts sinks again and ongoing debris comes from the hill. The reason for this story of landslides is not only excessive rainfall in the current monsoon season, but there are also great geographical reasons behind it. The study of the Wadia Himalayan Institute of Himalayan Geology, which slides at a rate of 10 to 12 mm per year, indicates that the large area is included here in the zinc zone (solution area). According to Dr. Vineette Gehlot, director of Wadia Himalayan Institute, shows GPS station installed in the Bhatwadi area, that the large country slides towards the river or in the direction of the shield at a rate of 10 to 12 mm per year. Why this happens, there are different reasons behind it. The big reason is that the mountains of the area in question are so weak from the inside that they cannot resist their own burden because of the seismic movement. Because their capacity is weak. For this reason, the strong flow of the river under the mountain quickly hollowed out. Due to the abnormal geological movement, the mountains here also rise above. According to the Wadia director, dr. Holded, the trees will be cut quickly in this entire area, the ground shift rate will be strengthened. Unplanned construction in areas with geopolitics must also be merged. Land shift in these areas Gambhir Gangotri Highway (Uttarkashi to Dharali) Gangori, Maneri (three places), Papad Gad (two places), Bhatwadi (three places), Gangnani (two places), Dabrani (four places). The roads are even in light rain in the light rain on the gangotri highway. As a result, agencies are facing a major challenge. Machinery was deployed on the roads for 24 hours. Nevertheless, Dharali’s way, due to the erosion on his roads, was not easy from Tuesday until now.
