Re: 2012 - road condition Uttarakhand

Seems like rains have stopped in Gharwal region - Heavy damage to the Public infrastructure and personal property is still being reported. Many areas cut off. Food and other daily utility items have gone short. The yatra still remains stopped.

But the good news no new damage due to rains being reported.

Though the water released from the dams flooding the approach plains areas of UP.

Heavy rains in the Gharwal side of Uttarakhand.
Mussorie to Yamunotri road blocked near Dharasu - this is the news. But mind it Dharasu in on Uttarkashi Yamunotri side of the road.

Tehri Jheel to have House boats and Scuba diving facility. Wonder what are they planning to show in the murky waters of Ganga.

Wonder what are they planning to show in the murky waters of Ganga.

LOL

To me it sounds like a good news. Tehri jheel is a beautiful place and having houseboats will increase tourism and of course revenues for UK Govt. Regarding the Scuba diving. They could show Old Tehri City which is submerged in the water. If they do the marketing well, they may be able to pull a decent amount of tourists.
