00:00We will call you.
00:30can be done. We are with Professor Winder Khewal, Environment Health and PGI. Sir, how do you see this situation?
01:08How do you see this situation in Nepal?
01:09It is basically a glacier. It was a breakage. It has blocked a river. It was a water storage.
01:22The outburst has become a problem. It has become a problem.
01:33It has become a problem. But if we understand this problem, the government has launched two years before the cabinet.
01:43The mission is a problem with the early warning system and weather monitoring and forecasting.
01:53The government has a lot of effort in the Himalayan region.
01:57If we talk about the Indian Himalayan region, in particular, the North East state is very high risk.
02:08Whether it is a Gulf or the way we have seen in Nepal, it is a glacier that is going
02:13to break the river line system.
02:17So, this is a land slide. It is a land slide. And the other parts of Himalayan region, which we
02:23have seen in the JNK, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh, or we have talked about our upper-hand side,
02:29so they are high risk
02:31so you can understand that
02:321-5 score in the 2 states
02:35where 5 were 4
02:36so we are very high risk
02:39so this is why the government
02:41has not only satellite monitoring
02:43because of that we can see
02:45the lake positioning
02:46the area we can see
02:48but we are talking about
02:50ground bed monitoring
02:52so we will see
02:54how big the lake is
02:55what is the flow
02:56which is our slopes
02:59stability
03:01geoinformatics
03:02which is also working on the work
03:04so you can say
03:05the flow monitoring
03:06and you can say
03:08the golf modeling
03:11is being very high risk
03:13so the risk of the early warning system
03:17you can say
03:19that you can say
03:20that you can say
03:21that you have a forecasting period
03:23that is 5 minutes
03:25sometimes
03:25it is 30 minutes
03:26so how do we extend it
03:29so that we can see
03:30a suitable time window
03:32so that we don't have a lot of knowledge
03:34so that we don't have a lot of knowledge
03:35so that we don't have a lot of knowledge
03:50that we can say
03:51or understand
03:53that we can see
03:54that we can see
03:55as you said
03:55as you said
03:56in the past 2-3 years
04:00we have a network
04:03that has been
04:04under the area
04:04that has been
04:04supported by the
04:04ground-based monitoring
04:05to be strengthened.
04:08India has progressed very well in satellite-based monitoring.
04:12We are monitoring very well, but there is also a limitation of its own.
04:17So definitely the ground-based monitoring is strengthened by our early warning system.
04:22So we keep this focus on the mission.
04:26And you will see in weather monitoring and forecasting,
04:30India has started to develop infrastructure.
04:36Besides, if we look at the ground situation,
04:43the risk mapping and zoning is very important.
04:47And in the past few years, if we look at data,
04:49how many lakes are, the area is growing,
04:52which are the glaciers that are vulnerable,
04:56or you can say that are retreating,
04:58and which areas are prone to land-slides.
05:02So all these factors help us in understanding the risks
05:08and also how we manage it.
05:11Mr. Sir, you said that there is a young fold in Himalaya.
05:15As you say, it is a growing, a spiritual trait.
05:24So what the reason is,
05:27why are these high-risk zones,
05:29or why are we expanding to the Bokkm,
05:34and the fear of the population is all over...
05:37The reason is related to all the reasons.
05:37Whether you are China, or India, or all over Nepal.
05:40Do you see those things that are getting bigger than these things in this way?
05:47Look, the Himalayan zone is a sensitive zone.
05:53If we look at it, this is a seismic zone from 4 to 5.
05:56It is a very high risk of earthquake.
05:58And we also know that the Asian and Eurasian plates are very active.
06:03So this is what makes it sensitive to you.
06:06The second thing is that the temperature is increasing.
06:11That is why our glacier retreats.
06:13So we can say that the impact on our glacier and the permafrost.
06:21The other thing is frozen.
06:23The third thing is that our development is eco-sensitive methodology.
06:33So if it doesn't happen, then we have a proper monitoring.
06:38There are many eco-sensitive zones in which we have to do the road or other things.
06:43But we get to see some blasts.
06:45So in this way, we have to bring the geoinformatics to the geoinformatics
07:02and we need to build new buildings.
07:05Or we need to build new buildings.
07:05Or if we are the local partners,
07:07home-stay or home-stay,
07:09we need to involve them.
07:10Our water resources,
07:12we need to save them.
07:14So the local needs can be complete.
07:17And the local involvement in monitoring and measurement can be complete.
07:23The other things, as I have told you,
07:25there are sustainable mechanisms,
07:27road, tunnels,
07:28all the other things in monitoring.
07:29We need to see that.
07:30Plus, our agriculture system in Himalayan,
07:34we need to see that it is sustainable.
07:37There are crops and you can say that
07:41they need to increase.
07:43We need to see that the climate is suitable or sensitive.
07:50So if they are sensitive,
07:52then definitely they can improve the ecosystem there.
07:58My last question is,
08:00this situation is made.
08:01In this situation,
08:03the alarming system is a little bit more
08:07than the ground level.
08:09There are satellites.
08:10You think,
08:12in the coming days,
08:13all over development
08:15or all over temperature
08:17increase,
08:18we need to focus more on these things
08:19so that the melting situation
08:21in the glaciers
08:22can be controlled.
08:23Look,
08:24the global warming or climate change scenario
08:26is a real threat.
08:28Now,
08:29we can reduce the impact of climate change
08:31for that.
08:32There is a global treaty,
08:33the Kyoto Protocol,
08:34but we cannot reduce it.
08:36And in the coming days,
08:37we are seeing that
08:38the temperature
08:39if it increases 1.5,
08:41then there will be irreversible changes.
08:44You understand that
08:45the higher the temperature
08:46will increase the air
08:48and it will increase
08:49more turbulent weather.
09:19our coalitions
09:20We have increased our local system and monitoring.
09:22As I told you, the local people who are in the North East or North East,
09:28they are engaged in this,
09:30we have to work with the solution with the community.
09:36We will work with these solutions.
09:38We are talking about the response in China.
09:43The response is being delayed in China.
09:46The response is being delayed in China.
09:49Are there any factors that we have to work with?
09:54You are saying that, basically,
09:57there is no knowledge about it.
09:59Yes, it is necessary that,
09:59the water agreement,
10:03the last three or six years ago,
10:07was expired.
10:09Now, there is a conversation about it.
10:10There will definitely be a positive result.
10:14But if we have the flow, precipitation,
10:16and the rest of the information,
10:18it gets timely.
10:19So, it will strengthen our early warning system and prediction.
10:23But India,
10:24which is in the satellite,
10:25I have told you that it is good.
10:27And now,
10:27we have increased our ground-based monitoring,
10:29which are dangerous threats,
10:31despite that China is not sharing the information,
10:33can advance basically in the early warning system.
10:39Very早 sangat berxterous.
