Alarming! Joshimath Sank 5.4cm In 2 Weeks

Images released by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) show that Uttarakhand’s Joshimath sank 5.4 cm in the 12 days from December 27, 2022 to January 8. According to a report by the ISRO’s National Remote Sensing Centre a slow subsidence of 8.9 cm was recorded between April and November 2022.

The 12-day sinking rate has been rapid as between April 2022 and November 2022, Joshimath saw a slow subsidence of 9cm. The NSRC said a rapid subsidence event was triggered between December last week and January first week.

The subsidence zone is located at central Joshimath only including the Army Helipad and Narsingh Mandir, the satellite images revealed. The crown of the subsidence is located near Joshimath-Auli road at a height of 2,180m.

Joshimath has been declared a land-subsidence zone by the Chamoli district administration after hundred of houses developed cracks within a few days and families had to be relocated as their residences have been identified as dangerous. While the government has announced an interim relief package of ₹1.5 lakh and working on a rehabilitation package, the demolition of two hotels began on Thursday but was again halted because of bad weather. The mechanical demolition was earlier stalled for a few days because of the protest of the locals and residents.
