Climate change, pollution, construction: multiple whammy to fuel more Sikkim-like disasters, warn scientists

IndiaTimes Sunday, 22 October 2023
Scientists warn that the Himalayas are at risk of more glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) due to climate change, construction, and pollution. Sikkim, which recently experienced flash floods, is not the only vulnerable region; Himachal Pradesh, Arunachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir are also susceptible. Factors contributing to GLOFs include melting glaciers, earthquakes, and black carbon emissions. Climate change is causing glacier wastage and extreme weather conditions, increasing the frequency of GLOFs.

Kangana Ranaut knocks Tejasvi Surya in flub, Tejashwi Yadav reacts | Viral Video | Oneindia News

During an election rally in Himachal Pradesh, Kangana Ranaut, now a BJP candidate, inadvertently mixed up Tejashwi Yadav with BJP MP Tejasvi Surya while criticising the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader for "eating fish". However, it was Yadav who had previously faced criticism for a video showing him consuming fish during Navratri. The rally, held in Mandi, highlighted Ranaut's political foray in the Lok Sabha seat. In her address, she not only attacked Yadav but also accused Surya of "hooliganism" and referenced his alleged fish-eating habits. #LSPolls2024 #Elections2024 #LokSabhaElections2024 #TejashwiYadav #KanganaRanaut #TejasviSurya #MachliRemark #PoliticalFlub #ViralVideo #PoliticalDrama #ElectionSeason #SocialMediaBuzz #PublicReactions ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.101~
