Nepal’s devastating floods have delivered a brutal warning for the Himalayan region: what happens when extreme mountain hazards collide with densely settled valleys. But how safe are India’s hill stations? From Joshimath and Shimla to Manali, Mussoorie and Sikkim, rapid urbanisation, mass tourism, road construction, hydropower projects and fragile mountain geology are creating a dangerous mix. Climate change is intensifying the risks of landslides, cloudbursts, flash floods and glacial lake outbursts. But climate change is only part of the story. As concrete, highways, hotels and entire towns expand into vulnerable terrain, are we building faster than the Himalayas can absorb? This is India’s growing mountain-risk crisis.
