THDC and Central Water Commission’s Claims about Tehri Truth versus the Hype The claim of THDC, CWC and Uttarakhand Chief Minister that in absence of Tehri dam, Rishikesh and Haridwar would have been washed away is completely baseless and unfounded, nothing but a hype. Facts show that if Tehri were not there, the water level in downstream areas may have gone up earlier than it eventually did on June 18 (as per CWC, peak level in Rishikesh was 340.8 m and in Hridwar at 295.1 m), but not much higher than the levels that were achieved. THDC and CWC should refrain from making such claims as they are more like adding salt to the wounds that the people of the state are now experiencing and where dams and hydro projects have played a big role. From all accounts, it is clear that peak flood in Bhagirathi River on which Tehri dam is situated, occurred on June 16 and the peak flood in Alaknanda occurred on June 17, so it would not be rational to add the two peaks happening at differ...
