Chamoli glacier burst: All angles should be investigated, says Satpal Maharaj

Uttarakhand Irrigation Minister Satpal Maharaj said that all angles (related to the Chamoli glacier burst) should be investigated. "We will form a department so that we can monitor and study all the glaciers through satellite," he said. A glacier burst in the Tapovan-Reni area of Chamoli District of Uttarakhand last week led to massive flooding in the Dhauliganga and Alaknanda rivers and damaged houses and the nearby Rishiganga power project. Several people lost their lives due to glacier burst.
