The rescue operation at the Tapovan hydel project tunnel in Uttarakhand’s Chamoli continued unabated on Friday, following confirmation that there was no immediate danger of water level increasing in the Rishi Ganga and Dhauli Ganga rivers due to the formation of a lake upstream.
“Indian Institute of Remote Sensing, Dehradun, scientists carried out an aerial survey of the lake. They confirmed water discharge from the lake,” said an official, adding that scientists had later indicated there was no immediate threat of a flood in the Rishi Ganga and Dhauli Ganga rivers.
