On the night of June 22, there was a sudden flood in Rolwaling river. The flood destroyed the Rolwaling footpath itself. The flood washed away 8 hotels in Dogang, which is on the Rolwaling Path of Gaurishankar-9, and left one person missing. However, nothing has been revealed yet about how the Rolwaling river flowing from the Chho-Rolpa glacier got flooded.
Local Dawachiring Sherpa said that a huge landslide fell from above between Na and Beding, a tourist village near Chho-Rolpa. "There has been a huge landslide between Na and Beding," he said, "there are small ice lakes in that area, it is assumed that the water that broke out caused the landslide." "After the flood of Rolwaling, the residents of Beding are spending sleepless nights in fear," he said.
In the upper region of Na and Beding, the largest Himalayan lake is Chho-Rolpa . Above that, there is another Himtal dairy at a distance of about an hour . Both these glaciers are the main sources of the Rolwaling River. He said that the fear of Himtal explosion and flood is also present in Beding and Na. He said that there are also small lakes and ponds in the upper area of Beding.
On June 22, the connection between Beding and Na was broken after the flood in Rolwaling river washed away the long suspension bridge of the footpath along with other small bridges. It has been more than a month since the electricity supply of the national transmission line reached Beding has been disrupted. Many speculated that the river was blocked by a landslide in the middle of Beding. But the locals said that the sudden flood in Rolwaling river may not have stopped the river but burst from the lake in the upper area.
Locals have named the snow lake at the head of Beding Dorji Phungmo . Locals have also speculated that the lake has burst. Locals said that the length of Himtal is 900 meters. Dorji Phungmo Himtal, which is at an altitude of 4,443 meters, is also called Bhairav Lake.
Praveen Singh, executive and climatologist of the Natural Research Center, said that there are many small glaciers in the high part of the Rolwaling region. 'We should study about the flood in Rolwaling,' he said, 'because the river flows through Himalaya, it will be easy to understand the situation in that area if we study it.' He said it would be easy. He said that although the government has raised the issue of snow and climate in the Himalayan region, the Himalayan settlements are at risk of disaster due to lack of implementation.
