On February 7th, a glacial lake outburst in Uttarakhand that washed away two hydropower projects: Rishiganga and Tapovan. Both of these were under construction. Around 150 people, mostly labourers working on these projects, have gone\u00a0missing. Search operations are still going on and it has caused massive destruction. After the 2013 cloud burst and deluge in the Uttarakhand, experts had warned about building\u00a0dams in this region. However, the officials have completely ignored these opinions and continue to push such projects. This appears to be only the beginning and this experts anticipate more such disasters occurring.
