Following disasters inflicted by overflowing glacial lakes in the Himalayas, the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has finalised a list of 189 “high-risk” glacial lakes for mitigation measures to reduce the risk emanating from them. Some of the proposed steps include constituting teams to investigate these lakes and attempt “lake-lowering measures”, which are done to buffer against any overflow, and mitigating potential damage in downstream States. Last October, the South Lhonak Lake in Sikkim, a glacier-formed lake, overflowed and inundated several parts of the Northeastern State killing at least 40 people and destroying the Chungthang dam.

The National Glacial Lake Outburst Floods Risk Mitigation Programme (NGRMP) was approved by the Centre on July 25. There are nearly 7,500 glacial lakes in the Himalayan Mountain ranges located in India and some of them are being monitored via remote sensing. However, fully assessing its impact is only possible with site visits, which are difficult as the location of these lakes are in inhospitable terrain and there are only few months in a year — July to September — where expeditions can be mounted to access them.
