Could China's Tibet Mega Dam Trigger A Bigger Himalayan Disaster? | WION Originals
The catastrophic Nepal-Tibet floods that killed over 100 people and left hundreds missing have reignited concerns over China's massive Medog Dam project. Investigators believe a glacial collapse triggered the disaster, highlighting the dangers posed by infrastructure projects in the seismically active Himalayas. The 60,000-megawatt dam under construction on the Yarlung Tsangpo River in Tibet is located near active fault lines and close to India's border. Experts warn that a major earthquake, landslide, or structural failure could have far-reaching consequences for downstream regions in India and Bangladesh. Is China's mega dam becoming a growing geopolitical and environmental concern?
