Not every soil is plain soil and fit for digging, moving, and blasting. "Himalaya is one of the youngest mountain ranges, in high seismic zone and to top it all is a proscenium of extreme climate events. And yet, they draw a plan on autoCAD, same perhaps as they made for Sarojini Nagar redevelopment, or copied from Hongkong, and got it ‘passed’.

After Joshimath, cracks appeared in houses in Uttarkashi, Rudraprayag, Karnaprayag etc. This is no coincidence, Jha said adding that all these are either closer to the Char Dham Road project or some rail tunnel zone or some hydroelectric project.
This raises severe question mark on the future of rishikesh karnaprayag rail project

If u play with nature this happens.
Previously also we had seen several incidents in hills where construction activity taken up cutting mountains and severe landslides happened.
All construction in mountains should be stopped immediately

All construction cannot be stopped as survival of local public is also to be looked after, but yes it needs to be reduced to a bare minimum, putting a strong capping on the number of tourists allowed per season.
These development work were approved by central govt in last few years, they lots of people were against of such thoughtess development
