NEW DELHI:
Pushkar Singh Dhami, the chief minister of Uttarakhand, arrived in Joshimath on Saturday to conduct ground inspection of areas damaged by the landslide and speak with the affected families. Around 600 homes and other buildings in Joshimath have developed fractures as a result of the soil moving, and residents are camped out in the cold.
The chief minister surveyed Joshimath from the air. He will also meet with the families who have been impacted and assess the affected areas on the ground.
On Friday, the state administration issued an order for the immediate evacuation of 600 residents who were residing in homes with significant cracks and were in danger in the sinking town of Joshimath. The town’s chief minister will meet with those who have been impacted and will have a meeting with officials.
A recent inspection by a team of experts confirmed what many locals had been fearing, the city is literally sinking at its base. Joshimath is recognised for being the location where Adi Guru Shankaracharya underwent penance centuries ago and is the entrance to well-known pilgrimage sites like Badrinath and Hemkund Sahib.
Joshimath-Malari border route, which connects the India-China border, has suffered fissures in multiple locations as a result of landslides.
