The Uttarakhand government is also working on a strategy for relocation and rehabilitation in addition to evicting residents and demolishing buildings that have been damaged.

According to Uttarakhand chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, efforts are being made for the restoration of the town, potential relocation sites include Gauchar (90 kilometers away) and Pipalkoti (35 kilometers away).

Narendra Modi, the prime minister, has promised support from the center.

Some people appear to be open to moving to a neighborhood near Joshimath, but others have expressed opposition and even sought financial compensation—a “one-time settlement”—to cover losses.

Deepak Rawat, an affected resident who was relocated with his family following cracks in their house behind Hotel Mount View, stated: “We want a one-time settlement plan,” Thakur Singh Rana, a hotelier who was also in a relief camp, stated.

“The government should rehabilitate us to a location close to Joshimath…” We don’t want the government to impose anything; if we are paid appropriately, we can shift wherever we want…”

In the meantime, cracks have also been observed on a few homes in Bahuguna Nagar, which is located in the Karnaprayag Municipality area of Chamoli.

According to Sitarganj MLA Saurabh Bahuguna, other villages near Joshimath were in a similar predicament.

Experts and people who live there have been warning for a long time that large-scale construction projects in and around the town, including power projects built by companies like the state-run National Thermal Power Corporation, could cause the land to sink.

India’s largest power producer, NTPC, claims that the cracks in the town of about 17,000 people are not caused by its tunneling or other work.
