Behind the Chamoli Disaster: ‘I Expect to See More Such Events’ ‘Is there no less lethal way to generate electricity?’ BHUBANESHWAR: On Sunday morning, Feb. 7, as most of the working-class in India’s Himalayan state of Uttarakhand went about their chores, the glacier-fed Rishi Ganga river started rising. Two hours later, swollen with rock debris and snowmelt, its waters rose 53 feet the height equivalent of a five-storey building. The Dehradun-based Indian Institute of Remote Sensing (IIRS), part of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), estimates that approximately 2 to 3 million cubic metres of water was released in the surrounding rivers. As the brown-grey, monstrous body of water crashed down the steep river path, hilltop residents first to see it lost no time. Mothers called their sons working on the construction of the 480 MW Tapovan-Vishnugad hydro-power project and dam and urged them to flee.
