Uttrakhand disaster "Himalayan Tsunami"
The June 2013 floods and landslides in the northern Indian state of Uttarakhand were one of India's worst natural disasters, killing over 5,000 people. Heavy rainfall of over 375% of the average triggered flooding and melting glaciers, devastating towns along rivers like the Mandakini. Unplanned development including road construction and hydroelectric projects disrupted the fragile Himalayan ecology and contributed to the scale of the disaster. The government was unprepared for an event of this magnitude, and rescue operations took days to reach thousands of stranded pilgrims.
HIMALAYAN TSUNAMI AND ITS DEVASTATING EFFECTS (June 15th-16th 2013 )
Heavy rainfall and cloudbursts in the Indian state of Uttarakhand in June 2013 caused devastating floods and landslides. Over 500 people were reported dead, 60,000 stranded, and infrastructure was destroyed. The worst affected areas were Rudraprayag, Chamoli, Uttarkashi and Tehri Garhwal districts. Rescue operations involving over 32,000 people required efforts from the National Disaster Response Force, Indo-Tibetan Border Police, and Indian Space Research Organisation. Relief and rehabilitation efforts continued for thousands affected.
Himalayan tsunami
The document summarizes the 2013 Himalayan tsunami that caused devastating floods and landslides in the Indian state of Uttarakhand from June 14-17. It describes how unusually heavy rainfall of over 375% of the normal amount, combined with other factors like construction, tourism development, and climate change, led to flash floods and landslides that caused widespread destruction and over 10,000 deaths. It discusses the emergency response and relief efforts by government agencies and militaries to conduct search, rescue and evacuation operations in the difficult terrain. It concludes that while heavy rainfall triggered the natural disaster, human activities like infrastructure development contributed greatly to its large scale impacts.

Cyclone
This document summarizes the effects of two major cyclones in India - the 1999 Odisha super cyclone and Phailin in 2013 - and discusses cyclone disaster management. It describes the devastating impact of the 1999 cyclone, which killed over 100,000 people, and highlights lessons learned about prioritizing prevention and preparedness. For Phailin, nearly 1 million people were successfully evacuated. The document outlines structural and non-structural approaches to cyclone management, including early warning systems, and notes the risks of climate change for increasing cyclone intensity in the future.
Cyclone
Cyclones are areas of closed, circular winds rotating in the same direction as the Earth. They form as low pressure systems through various processes at different scales. The main types of cyclones are tropical cyclones, which form due to latent heat from thunderstorms, and extratropical cyclones, which form along weather fronts and later become cold core systems. Cyclogenesis refers to the development or strengthening of cyclonic circulation, while cyclolysis is the opposite process. Cyclones exist on other planets like Jupiter and Neptune as well.

Cyclone 1970 : The Deadliest Disaster in the World
The 1970 Bhola cyclone that struck Bangladesh was the deadliest tropical cyclone on record, killing an estimated 300,000 to 500,000 people. The storm formed in the Bay of Bengal in early November and made landfall in Bangladesh on November 12th with winds of 185 km/h. The extremely high death toll was primarily due to a devastating storm surge that flooded much of the low-lying Ganges Delta region. The cyclone exacerbated political tensions in Bangladesh and helped trigger the country's war of independence from Pakistan.
Godavari River
The Godavari is India's second longest river originating in Maharashtra and flowing through several states before emptying into the Bay of Bengal. It has many tributaries and is an important water source supporting irrigation projects that irrigate millions of hectares of agricultural land.

Bangladesh Flood Action Plan
This document discusses the evolution of flood action planning in Bangladesh over several decades. It began with national water planning approaches in the 1960s and 1980s that emphasized large-scale infrastructure projects but overlooked other factors. In response to devastating 1988 floods, the Flood Action Plan was developed which initially proposed a structural flood control approach but later incorporated more participation and environmental considerations. Post-FAP planning has further emphasized participatory and multi-sectoral approaches, as well as regional cooperation, to better manage flooding in Bangladesh. Implementing these new planning principles remains an ongoing challenge.

The document discusses the impact of hydroelectric projects in Uttarakhand, India. It notes that in 2013, massive floods killed nearly 6,000 people in Uttarakhand. In response, the Supreme Court halted hydroprojects pending review of their environmental impact. Experts then recommended scrapping approved projects, but the central government has tried to balance development with environmental costs. The 2021 Chamoli disaster destroyed two new hydroprojects, demonstrating the risks that intense rainfall and other climate events pose for dams in ecologically sensitive areas. There is an ongoing debate around how to meet infrastructure needs while protecting the Himalayan environment.

Besides various measures for putting in place institutional and policy framework, disaster prevention, mitigation and preparedness enunciated in this paper and initiatives being taken by the Central and State Governments, the community, civil society organisations and media also have a key role to play in achieving our goal of moving together, towards a safer India.The message beingput across is that, in order to move towards safer and sustainable national development, development projects should be sensitive towards disaster mitigation.4Our vision 2020 is to build a safer and secure India through sustained collective effort, synergy of national capacities and people’s participation. What looks a dream today will be transformed into reality in the next two decades. This is our goal and we shall strive to achieve this goal with a missionary zeal. The path ahead, which looks difficult today, will become a lot easier as we move along together.
Floodplain Mapping of Krishna River at Karad Using Hec-Ras
This document summarizes a study that used the HEC-RAS modeling software to map flood inundation areas along the Krishna River in India. The study collected topographic and flow data for the Krishna River basin and used HEC-RAS to perform a 1D steady-state hydraulic analysis. Cross-section and flow path data were created in RAS Mapper software. The HEC-RAS model was run for peak flows corresponding to 25, 50, and 100-year return periods. Floodplain maps showing inundated areas along the Krishna River were produced for each return period. The floodplain maps can help agencies better plan for flood risks and mitigate impacts in low-lying flood-prone
CAUSES AND DISASTER RISK REDUCTION MEASURES FOR HYDROMETEROLOGICAL DISASTER I...
The document discusses causes and risk reduction measures for hydrometeorological disasters in the Western Himalaya region of India. It notes that such disasters are caused by natural atmospheric, hydrological or oceanographic events like floods, cyclones, droughts, and landslides. Specific disasters that affect the Western Himalaya include heavy rainfall, floods, hailstorms, cloud bursts, heat and cold waves, snow avalanches, droughts, and thunder and lightning. Climate change can impact atmospheric conditions and intensify these events. Geological factors like loose rock strata and unfavorable slopes also contribute to landslides and mudflows. Growing population has led to unscientific land use and development activities that further increase disaster risks

The village of Gadharkhai in Odisha is located near an aluminum smelting plant owned by NALCO that pollutes the area with fluoride. The pollution has caused health problems for villagers like brittle bones and damaged crops. Despite many protests, little action has been taken to address the pollution. Now, the villagers are demanding to be relocated due to the pollution. However, the Odisha government plans to greatly expand industrial activity in the region, including many new coal mines and power plants, which will vastly increase pollution and damage to water resources and livelihoods. This will exacerbate the existing pollution problems facing local communities.
Phailin
Very Severe Cyclonic Storm Phailin formed in the Bay of Bengal in October 2013 and made landfall in Odisha, India. It was the strongest storm to hit India in over a decade and caused widespread damage. Over 11 million people were evacuated in Odisha and Andhra Pradesh ahead of the storm. Phailin caused heavy rainfall, flooding, destruction of homes and crops, and over 60 deaths across eastern India. The evacuation effort was credited with minimizing loss of life from the powerful cyclone.
Hyderabad floods 2020
Heavy rains in mid-October 2020 caused flash flooding in Hyderabad, India. A deep depression formed in the Bay of Bengal on October 11th and moved towards India over the next three days, dumping heavy rain on Hyderabad on the 12th and 13th. This caused widespread flooding that affected over 37,400 families and killed 61 people across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra. The flooding was exacerbated by infrastructure development like housing colonies and shrinking of lakes that reduced natural flood buffers. The floods caused an estimated $670 million in property damage in Hyderabad alone.
IRJET - A Geographical Study of Nilwande Canal in Ahmednagar District, Pravar...
The document discusses the Nilwande Canal irrigation project in Ahmednagar District of Maharashtra, India. It examines the current state of the Nilwande Canal and its left and right branches. The canal irrigates over 64,260 hectares of land across 182 villages in Ahmednagar and Nashik districts. The left canal branches include the Talegaon and Kopargaon branches. Work is ongoing on various sections of the left and right canals. A proposed high level canal could irrigate an additional 1,572 hectares of land through pipes. The project aims to boost irrigation and agriculture in the drought-prone region.
Flood in odisha
Floods regularly ravage the state of Odisha in India due to heavy rainfall and the overflow of the Mahanadi River. The document discusses several major floods since 2013 that have caused deaths, with the most recent in 2020 killing 3 people. It also outlines challenges faced during floods like food and water shortages as well as infrastructure damage. The role of the Hirakud Dam in exacerbating floods is described. The government works to deploy rescue and relief efforts including food delivery via airforce helicopters.
Cyclone Phailin in Odisha, 2013
Cyclone Phailin caused widespread damage in Odisha in 2013. Over 256,600 homes were damaged and 13.2 million people across 18 districts were affected. Damage to infrastructure including roads, water systems, power grids and crops totaled over 15,000 million rupees. Assessments found needs including 5,417 million for temporary housing, basic services and land acquisition, as well as rebuilding more resilient infrastructure like shelters, embankments and underground power lines to mitigate risks from future disasters.
kedarnathflood.pptx 1.pptx
The document summarizes the 2013 Kedarnath floods in Uttarakhand, India. Heavy rainfall led to cloudbursts and landslides that caused devastating floods. The melting of the Chorabari glacier and an eruption of the Mandakini River severely damaged the area around Kedarnath Temple. Over 800 people were killed and thousands more went missing or were displaced. Rescue operations involving the Indian armed forces and disaster response teams helped evacuate over 18,000 people. While heavy rainfall was a natural cause, environmental degradation and unplanned construction in fragile areas exacerbated the impacts of the disaster.
Nuclear reactor.....
The document summarizes information about the Nagarjuna Sagar Dam located on the Krishna River in Andhra Pradesh. It was constructed between 1955-1967 to provide hydroelectric power and irrigation. The 590 foot tall dam created a large reservoir and supports a 815.6 MW hydroelectric plant. It provides irrigation to over 2 million acres of land through its right and left bank canals. While it has enabled agricultural development, it has also negatively impacted the local environment and ecology. There is potential to further utilize the dam's storage capacity.
Issue of Kalabagh Dam in Pakistan
The document discusses the proposed Kalabagh Dam project in Pakistan. It would be an earth-fill dam 265 feet high on the Indus River, providing 6.1 MAF of water storage and 3,600 megawatts of hydropower. Supporters argue it would reduce flooding and power shortages, but it faces opposition from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sindh provinces over environmental and displacement concerns. Specifically, there is worry that the Nowshera city in KPK could be flooded, and low river flows could increase sea water intrusion into the Indus if the dam is built. While the dam may provide national benefits, the presenters do not support the project due to the disadvantages for
Interlinking of rivers in india
The document discusses India's interlinking of rivers project, which aims to connect 37 rivers through 30 links and 3000 reservoirs. It would transfer 174 trillion liters of water annually and create 87 million acres of irrigation. The project faces major issues like large costs of $560 billion, environmental impacts of deforestation and ecosystem damage, and social impacts of population displacement. The only project to begin is the Ken-Betwa interlink between Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, but it risks submerging 4000 hectares of Panna Tiger Reserve and faces implementation challenges. Alternatives proposed include rainwater harvesting, groundwater recharging, and community-based water management.

Himalayan Tsunami 2013
- 2. Causes of Flood Due to Continuous Rain the Chorabari Glacier melted and this triggered the flooding of the Mandakini river Which led to heavy floods near Gobindghat, Kedar Dome, Rudraprayag district, Uttrakhand
- 3. From 15 June 2013, Indian state of Uttrakhand and near by are received heavy rainfall. The rainfall was above benchmark which is above 375 percent. A multi-day cloudburst ,centered on the state Uttrakhand caused devastating floods and landslides
- 4. Kedarnath Temple (Before Flood) Kedarnath Temple (After flood)
- 5. 365 houses destroyed, 275 houses partially damaged in Uttrakhand
- 6. 608 villages, covering a population of 7 lakhs, in 23 districts of Uttar Pradesh were affected with flood and As of 11 July 2013 more than 120 deaths were reported from the state
- 7. 822 Deaths were occurred in flood. (Official estimation). 1800 People were missing. 2232 housings were damaged. 154 Bridges were damaged. 1520 Roads were damaged
- 8. MAJOR CAUSES OF DESTRUCTION More than 220 power and mining projects are running in 14 river valleys in Uttrakhand. Several rivers are being diverted through tunnels for these projects leading to major disasters in the state.
- 9. Deforestation is also one of the most important factor of uttrakhand disaster, which cause frequently landslide.
- 10. How this can be prevented in future At present the area is only accessible by air and establishing the narrow roads and the foot bridges will be crucial. Also barring the temple everything around remains in shambles which needs restoration work and as hinted by the Uttrakhand Chief Minister that it will take at least 2 years (Approximately).
- 11. The phenomenon known as Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOFS) "are capable of releasing billions of cubic meters of glacial water, stored for decades, in a few short hours, or even in a matter of minutes This could have been prevented if the state government had heeded the call to cease construction and encroachment on the riverbed. The New Delhi-based Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has also traced the link between the disaster and the manner in which development has been carried out in this unique region. Acknowledging the economic importance of energy generation, CSE Director-General, questions whether or not “the Central or state government ever considered the cumulative impact of the hydropower projects on the rivers and the mountains.” “Currently, there are roughly 70 projects built or (slated to be built) on the Ganga, expected to generate some 10,000 megawatts (MW) of power Global Warming = Melting Glaciers = 'Himalayan Tsunamis'
