The report had recommended that construction in certain parts of the town be stopped. It also said a poor drainage system and erosion by rivers have compounded the situation in the past few years,” informed an official involved in compiling the report last year. The locals took out a march demanding their immediate evacuation from the town and stoppage of NTPC construction work. Bhuwan Chandra Uniyal, chief priest of Badrinath temple situated next to Joshimath, called for help from the government. The operation of Auli ropeway, one of Asia’s longest ropeways, was also stopped. Why didn’t they pay heed to us earlier?” asked JBSS convener Atul.

The Chamoli administration has said after Joshimath subsidence that 561 establishments reported cracks while 38 families got displaced.

About 570 houses in Joshimath developed cracks in recent days, apparently caused by climate and infrastructural changes.

Residents believe that the government ignored warning signs in order to continue infrastructure development, as cracks first appeared in 2021, and now locals are paying the price for this negligence.

Joshimath Latest News in Hindi: जोशीमठ के अस्तित्व पर ही संकट का खतरा क्यों मंडराने लगा है?

Joshimath, a hilly town in Uttarakhand, has raised national concerns as the hill begins to claim its lands. The city is sinking.

The landslide debris on which the city was established has a low bearing capacity and experts have long warned that it cannot support a high rate of construction. That report -- by the government-appointed Mishra Commission -- pointed to a crucial piece of information: Joshimath is located on the site of an ancient landslide. While the panic over the Joshimath sinking is making headlines now, scientists and geologists working in the area have been sounding the alarm for decades. Joshimath is also of great strategic importance to the Indian armed forces and is home to one of the Army's most important cantonments. A 2022 report stated that the area around Joshimath is covered with thick layers of overburdened material. The winter abode of lord Badrinath, a staging ground for troops posted along the Sino-Indian border, and a sort of a base camp for Himalayan expeditions, Joshimath is making headlines for the wrong reason: it is sinking.

The town observed a bandh to protest against administrative indifference to the plight of residents and the “NTPC projects which have led to its gradual ...

The degree of damage to the houses differ, he said, adding that more families could be evacuated if required. Joshimath also acts as a key transit point for tourists travelling to both Badrinath and Hemkund Sahib as a halt here is what most take before carrying on with their journey. Cracks have appeared on 561 houses in Joshimath, and water seepage continues from underground in JP Colony, Marwadi. Land subsidence and cracks in many houses continue in Uttarakhand’s Joshimath. “Landslides are happening continuously in Joshimath (Jyotirmath). I will visit Joshimath tomorrow and take stock of the situation.

Uttarakhand According to the report, Joshimath lies on an "ancient landslide" and hence the foundations aren't very strong. Land subsidence and cracks in many houses continue in Uttarakhand's Joshimath. Cracks have appeared on 561 houses in Joshimath, and water seepage continues from underground in JP Colony, Marwadi. It is a gateway to important Hindu pilgrimage sites like Badrinath (one of the four char dhams) and Hemkund Sahib. But the easier it is getting to access the nooks and corners of the state for tourists, the more damage it has brought to the land and its residents.

Kailash Joshwal, a resident of Joshimath blamed the construction work on the hydropower project run by National Thermal Power Corporation for the worsening situation with water from the power tunnels seeping into the houses resulting in the widening of the cracks. MCT passes below Helang, a little south of Joshimath Town, and juxtaposes with the rocks of Garhwal Group (Joshimath Formation), thereby bringing the town under the impact zone of any tectonic activity on MCT. “The seepage reduces the shear strength of the overburden soil,” said Dhyani. The Mishra Commission report (headed by MC Mishra then a top bureaucrat in Uttar Pradesh) in 1976 had recommended ban on heavy construction in the area around Joshimath. This adversely impacted the stability of the slope on which Joshimath town is situated,” the USDMA report said. “The head race tunnel of the project traverses all through the geologically fragile area below Joshimath. According to a study by Uttarakhand State Disaster Management Authority (USDMA), the town is located in an area prone to landslides and the first instance of subsidence in it was reported way back in 1976 Mishra Commission report. Its reference is to the glacial lake burst that caused a flood, resulting in the loss of 204 lives, mostly migrants working on a hydropower project. But the town of over 20,000 population is also on a fragile mountain slope rendered even more fragile by unplanned and indiscriminate development. The study also pointed out that eco-tectonic and geomorphic factors coupled with meteorological characteristics render Joshimath region highly vulnerable to subsidence. Joshimath almost sits on the Vaikrita Thurst (VT), a tectonic fault line. The impact of extreme rainfall events is visible in latest satellite data, which shows that mountain streams have expanded their channels and changed course, thereby inducing more slope instability in al already fragile belt.

The machinery on the ground needs to work with sensitivity and keep a watch on the situation. The state government should take appropriate steps to save Joshimath from landslides,” the party tweeted. Joshimath also has a number of homestays and hotels, many of which have been hit by the subsidence. In a statement, Bhatt said the state government is taking all steps to help those affected, and that NTPC and HCC are providing 2,000 prefabricated houses to affected families. The Chamoli administration has made arrangements for temporary shelters by earmarking over 70 rooms, seven halls and an auditorium with a capacity of 385 people as temporary shelters. The Chief Minister is set to visit Joshimath Saturday.

A recent survey by a team of experts confirmed what many locals had been fearing: the city is actually sinking at its base. According to Chief Minister ...

In order to preserve the soil capacity in the area, experts have also recommended replanting, particularly at the vulnerable sites. The state government has requested that the irrigation department look into the situation and develop a new plan for the drainage system. "The nalas have been blocked by sludge that came from the 2013 Himalayan tsunami, which also facilitated the toe erosion in the region. Experts advise that all construction and hydroelectric projects in the area be stopped immediately. Experts have long warned that the landslide debris on which the city was built has a low bearing capacity and cannot support a high rate of construction. The city is a tourist destination because it serves as an overnight rest stop for visitors to Badrinath, Auli, Valley of Flowers, and Hemkund Sahib, among other important religious and tourist destinations in the state. Joshimath is also strategically important to the Indian military, as it is home to one of the Army's most important cantonments. According to a report from 2022, there are numerous heavy layers of overburdened material covering the area near Joshimath. While the Joshimath sinking crisis is currently making headlines, local geologists and scientists have been raising the alarm for decades. The city, which serves as Lord Badrinath's winter residence, a staging area for troops stationed along the Sino-Indian border, and a sort of base camp for Himalayan expeditions, is in the news for the wrong reason right now: it is sinking. According to Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, the circumstances in Joshimath are being closely watched. There are cracks in more than 500 homes in the area.

The warning comes as scenes of panic are still being seen in Joshimath, in the Chamoli district.

It is highly vulnerable to large earthquakes. Environmentalists and locals have attributed the subsidence to the project. Experts are trying to get the reasons behind it.

The main problem in Joshimath has been the fact that the town has come up on relatively loose soil, deposited by landslides triggered by earthquakes.

The lack of systematic drainage has compounded the problem. “There is little else that can be done at this point. All this has led to fears that some parts of the town might collapse under its own weight. Over the years, people settled down in these areas because they were relatively flat due to the deposition of debris from landslides. Added to this is the fact that the area falls in a highly seismic zone, and experiences regular tremors, making the top soil unstable. “In fact, Joshimath is not the only habitation facing this problem.
