The Char Dham road widening project involves a planned 10-metre uniform expansion through the Bhagirathi Eco-Sensitive Zone (BESZ) in Uttarakhand. The project has been criticized for compounding slope instability by cutting through old landslide debris, destabilizing avalanche-prone slopes, and marking nearly 6,000 mature deodar trees for felling between Jhala and Jangla.

Description
Description | The Char Dham road widening project involves a planned 10-metre uniform expansion through the Bhagirathi Eco-Sensitive Zone (BESZ) in Uttarakhand. The project has been criticized for compounding slope instability by cutting through old landslide debris, destabilizing avalanche-prone slopes, and marking nearly 6,000 mature deodar trees for felling between Jhala and Jangla. An alternative highway design was proposed in October 2023 to the Union road transport and highways ministry, suggesting a flexible and disaster-resilient approach including judicial road width, valley side approach, tunnels, elevated corridors, and high-elevation bridges to protect ecological integrity and reduce landslide risk. |
