Construction of Roads in Uttarakhand UTTARAKHAND RELIGIOUS DESTINATIONS COME CLOSER UTTARAKHAND Himachal Pradesh Punjab UTTARAKHAND Haryana Uttar Pradesh The State of Uttarakhand, often called “Devbhoomi”, is a popular destination for religious and adventure tourism. A network of stronger, safer, all weather roads is being built, in the State over the past four years. Till 2014, the length of National Highways was 2,509 km. In 2018, NH length has reached 3,492 km. The completion of the Delhi-Meerut Expressway and Delhi Saharanpur Highway will result in greater savings in time, cost and fuel for Uttarakhand bound vehicles. Over Rs. 5,000 Cr will be invested to build 983 km of new National Highways. Work is in progress on 66 projects worth Rs. 12,300 Cr, spanning a length of 800 km. Under Chardham programme, 37 projects of 633 km length, worth a total cost of Rs. 8,500 Cr have been sanctioned. Out of these 23 projects of 385 km length worth Rs. 4,100 Cr are ongoing and the remaining ones are at tender/award stage. A total of Rs. 30,000 Cr worth investments will be made towards road development in the State. “When a network of good roads is created, the economy of the country also picks up pace. Roads are veins and arteries of the nation, which help to transform the pace of development and ensure that prosperity reaches the farthest corners of our nation.” NARENDRA MODI Prime Minister “In the past four years, we have expanded the length of Indian National Highways to 1,26,350 km. The highway sector has seen a 20% growth between 2014 and 2018. Tourist destinations have come closer. Border, tribal and backward areas are being connected seamlessly. Multimodal integration through road, rail and port connectivity is creating socio economic growth and new opportunities for the people. In the coming years, we have planned projects with investments worth over Rs. 6 lakh crore, to further expand the world’s second largest road network.” NITIN GADKARI Union Minister, Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, Shipping and Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation Fast tracking National Highway development in Uttarakhand NH + IN PRINCIPLE NH LENGTH UPTO YEAR 2018 3,542 km NH LENGTH UPTO YEAR 2014 2,282 km Adding new National Highways in Uttarakhand 1,160 km 240 km Yr 2014 - 2018 Yr 2010 - 2014 New NH New NH & In principle NH length 6 Construction of roads in Uttarakhand 846 km 144 km Yr 2014 - 2018 Yr 2010 - 2014 Constructed Constructed length length 846 km of National Highways have been built in 4 years 7 Road Projects awarded in Uttarakhand Yr 2010 - 2014 Yr 2014 - 2018 1,644.09 km 497.04 km Total Cost Total Cost Rs. 11,284.17 Cr Rs. 9,661.29 Cr Growth of 230% in the awarded length of road projects over last 4 years with investments worth Rs. 9,661.29 Cr 8 Accelerated NH Development under Central Road Fund (CRF) in Uttarakhand Yr 2014 - 2018 Yr 2010 - 2014 22 5 Projects Projects Total Cost Total Cost Rs. 113.56 Cr Rs. 300.32 Cr Significant increase of 164% in cost of CRF works sanctioned for the upgradation & improvement of roads / bridges in the State 9 Landmark Projects in Uttarakhand 10 Char Dham National Highway Development Programme After the natural calamity in Uttarakhand, the roads to the Char Dham were in a bad condition. Despite being the spiritual heart of India, these roads had not been developed until four years ago. The route would remain cut o¢ at many places during the rainy season due to heavy landslides. Integrated development of the Char Dham has been planned as a solution to these challenges. Projects spanning 900 km of National Highways worth Rs. 12,000 Cr are being developed to bring safe, all weather connectivity to the region. The new highways will be 2 laned with paved shoulders and a minimum width of 10 m. To ensure safety and comfort of travellers in the Char Dham, the following provisions are being made: 16 Bypasses 3 Viaducts 2 Tunnels 18 Wayside amenities 25 Major bridges 154 Bus stands / Bus- 39 Landslide bays/truck laybys Mitigative projects • On completion of the Char Dham project, Gangotri, Yamunotri, Kedarnath and Badrinath will be safely connected to Rishikesh • 37 projects of 633 km length, worth Rs. 8,500 Cr have been sanctioned till date • The project will be completed in 2019 11 12 Status of ongoing projects under Char Dham Sl.

One of the important functions of the NGRBA is to prepare and implement a Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). A Consortium of 7 Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) has been given the responsibility of preparing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP) by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF), GOI, New Delhi. Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) has been signed between 7 IITs (Bombay, Delhi, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur, Madras and Roorkee) and MoEF for this purpose on July 6, 2010. This report is one of the many reports prepared by IITs to describe the strategy, information, methodology, analysis and suggestions and recommendations in developing Ganga River Basin: Environment Management Plan (GRB EMP). The overall Frame Work for documentation of GRB EMP and Indexing of Reports is presented on the inside cover page. There are two aspects to the development of GRB EMP. Dedicated people spent hours discussing concerns, issues and potential solutions to problems. This dedication leads to the preparation of reports that hope to articulate the outcome of the dialog in a way that is useful.

    AFB/PPRC.17/11 28 September 2015 Adaptation Fund Board Project and Programme Review Committee Seventeenth Meeting Bonn, Germany, 6-7 October 2015 Agenda Item 6 f) PROPOSAL FOR INDIA (2) AFB/PPRC.17/11 Background 1. The Operational Policies and Guidelines (OPG) for Parties to Access Resources from the Adaptation Fund (the Fund), adopted by the Adaptation Fund Board (the Board), state in paragraph 45 that regular adaptation project and programme proposals, i.e. those that request funding exceeding US$ 1 million, would undergo either a one-step, or a two-step approval process. In case of the one-step process, the proponent would directly submit a fully-developed project proposal. In the two-step process, the proponent would first submit a brief project concept, which would be reviewed by the Project and Programme Review Committee (PPRC) and would have to receive the endorsement of the Board. In the second step, the fully- developed project/programme document would be reviewed by the PPRC, and would ultimately require the Board’s approval. 2. The Templates approved by the Board (OPG, Annex 4) do not include a separate template for project and programme concepts but provide that these are to be submitted using the project and programme proposal template. The section on Adaptation Fund Project Review Criteria states: For regular projects using the two-step approval process, only the first four criteria will be applied when reviewing the 1st step for regular project concept. In addition, the information provided in the 1st step approval process with respect to the review criteria for the regular project concept could be less detailed than the information in the request for approval template submitted at the 2nd step approval process.

  • VALLEY of FLOWERS Coordinates: 30°44′00″N 79°38′00″E Best Season: 15Th June to 15 September Garhwal Himalaya - Uttarakhand
    VALLEY OF FLOWERS Coordinates: 30°44′00″N 79°38′00″E Best Season: 15th June to 15 September Garhwal Himalaya - Uttarakhand Valley of Flowers National Park is an Indian national park, located at a height in West Himalaya. It is renowned for its meadows of endemic alpine flowers and the variety of flora found there. It is located in Uttarakhand state. This richly diverse area is also home to rare and endangered animals, including the Asiatic black bear, snow leopard, brown bear and blue sheep. The gentle landscape of the Valley of Flowers National Park complements the rugged mountain wilderness of Nanda Devi National Park to the east. Together they encompass a unique transition zone between the mountain ranges of the Zanskar and Great Himalaya. The park stretches over an expanse of 87.50 km². Both parks are encompassed in the Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve (223,674 ha) which is further surrounded by a buffer zone (5,148.57 km²).This Reserve is in the UNESCO World Network of Biosphere Reserves since 2004. The pristine water of Pushpawati River divides this enchanting valley into two parts. Capture thick dew drops on the vivid flowers, listen to the chirping of birds and enjoy the salubrious air of the Himalayas. While on expedition to Mt. Kamet this Valley was introduced to the world as the Valley of Flowers by Frank S, Smith, a mountaineer, explorer and botanist who camped here for several weeks in the monsoon of 1937.The legend is that Hanuman collected “Sanjeevani” herb from this valley to revive Lakshman.
