-Down to Earth

Sumna is an uninhabited place, with only border roads personnel working there; no word yet on casualties

A glacier burst at a remote place on the Indo-China border in Uttarkhand on the afternoon of April 23, 2021, according to a senior official. There is no word yet of any casualties.

“A glacier has burst near Uttarakhand’s Joshimath on the India-China border,” Colonel Manish Kapil, commander, Border Road Task Force, was quoted as saying in media reports.

The area where the mishap has happened — Sumna in Chamoli district — doesn’t have any human habitation. The incident has happened around 100 kilomtres from the village of Reni, which was struck by an avalanche in February. It has not been confirmed yet as to whether the current incident is a glacial lake outburst or an avalanche.
