Asha Devi Rana resident Raini village, Uttarakhand. We sold our land to the Rishiganga hydropower plant because we needed money. But it turns out that we paid for the dam with my sister’s life. The Chamoli flash flood just wiped out everything that came in its way.
After the flood, a makeshift ropeway set up by the rescue workers is the only connect between the two settlements of Raini village that lie on either side of the Rishiganga river
