Dehradun: On Sunday, heavy rains pounded much of Uttarakhand, causing landslides that shut many highways even as the Ganga surpassed the danger mark in Devprayag and the warning level in Haridwar as a result of the Alaknanda dam's huge release of water.
Sangam Ghat, Ramkund, Dhaneshwar Ghat, and Fuladi Ghat all reportedly filled with water when the Ganga's flow increased to 463.20 metres. The Alaknanda River's water level dramatically increased after the GVK hydroelectric project's dam released 2,000 to 3,000 cusecs of water.
