66 families have reportedly left Joshimath as of right now as a result of the appearance of cracks in the dwellings. “Now that fissures in Singhdhar and Marwadi are beginning to grow, this process has begun. Cracking is ongoing on Badrinath NH next to the Singhdhar Jain neighbourhood and at JP Company Gate in Marwadi, close to the checkpoint for the forest department. Worryingly, this crack is growing larger by the hour “said Shailendra Pawar, chairman of the Joshimath Municipal Council.
