ISRO releases first images of damage at Raini, Tapovan

What is known is that a portion of the Nanda Devi glacier possibly burst through its banks at Joshimath, triggering an avalanche and a deluge that rippled through the Alaknanda river system in the upper reaches of the Himalayas on Sunday.

While one of the satellite images show massive debris deposition in Dhauli Ganga, other images have displayed damage that has occurred at dam infrastructures at Tapovan and Raini due to the flash floods.
