 Why in news

  • Fourteen months after the Teesta-3 dam in Sikkim was destroyed by a glacier lake outburst flood, killing at least 100 people, an expert committee has recommended reconstructing the dam.

  • The new dam will be entirely concrete, designed to be stronger, with a spillway that can manage three times the capacity of the previous one 

  • The developer, Sikkim Urja Ltd. (SUL), is required to implement an early-warning system for floods in the upper catchment area.

  • The flood gates of the previous dam couldn't be opened in time, causing the breach. Had they been opened, the damage would have been less severe.

  • Cost considerations played a role in the choice of design, along with ensuring the dam could handle the maximum possible rain, as predicted by the India Meteorological Department.

  • SUL plans to move the dam's control room to a higher elevation for safety and improve the flood response system.
