Amid civilian fears in the wake of land subsidence in the Joshimath area, fresh cracks were seen on some houses in Bhauguna Nagar of Karnaprayag Municipality in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand. “Efforts are underway for rehabilitation of affected people in Joshimath. We assure the safety of the people of Joshimath. I have received calls about villages near Joshimath grappling with a similar situation,” the Sitarganj MLA said.
Meanwhile, authorities will start demolishing hotels and houses in Joshimath, which developed cracks in the wake of the landslide and subsidence. Hotel Malari Inn and Mount View, which have developed more cracks, will be demolished on Tuesday, officials said, adding that all residents have been safely evacuated from the ‘unsafe zones’.
