Spread over four wards of the municipality, these buildings are located in high-risk zones that had borne the brunt of land subsidence in the past 18 months.The severe land subsidence has led to the displacement of numerous families. Following a comprehensive survey, the Central Building Research Institute (CBRI) has deemed these buildings completely unsuitable and unsafe for habitation.According to a spokesperson for the disaster management department, around 1,200 houses are considered “unsafe” to live in. It has identified these buildings within a high-risk area and advised the government to take initiatives to rehabilitate the residents. Following the recommendation of CBRI, this is inevitable, and now these structures will be demolished.On Saturday, State Disaster Management Secretary Ranjeet Sinha conducted a public hearing with local representatives in Joshimath Nagar Palika. But during the meeting, families affected by the land submergence in Joshimath refused to evacuate the city after extensive discussions.Sinha has underlined the government’s commitment to consult the residents before making decisions. In Joshimath, the gateway town to the revered Badrinath, the initial signs of structural damage became evident in some houses in October 2021.
