    Brief Report on Uttarakhand Disaster (16/17 June 2013) by NIDM, Delhi Brief Report on visit to Alaknanda Valley, Uttarakhand Himalaya during 22-24 June 2013 By Surya Parkash, Ph.D. National Institute of Disaster Management, New Delhi [email protected] A major disaster struck on 16/17 June 2013 in Uttarakhand after heavy (64.5mm - 124.4mm) to very heavy rains (124.5mm – 244.4mm) on 16 and 17 June 2013 in several parts of the State (please refer figure 1 below for more information). According to IMD sources, the state had received > 400% rainfall during this period. This abnormally high amount of rain has been attributed to the fusion of westerlies with the monsoonal cloud system. Figure 1: Rainfall Distribution in the visited affected areas (Source of data: IMD) This heavy precipitation resulted into the swelling of rivers, both in the upstream as well as downstream areas. Besides the rain water, a huge quantity of water was probably released from melting of ice and glaciers due to high temperatures during the month of May and June. The water not only filled up Prepared by: Dr. Surya Parkash, Associate Professor, NIDM, Delhi [email protected] Brief Report on Uttarakhand Disaster (16/17 June 2013) by NIDM, Delhi the lakes and rivers that overflowed but also may have caused breaching of moraine dammed lakes in the upper reaches of the valley, particularly during the late evening on 16 June and on the next day i.e. 17 June 2013, killing about several hundred persons, thousands missing and trapping about a hundred thousand pilgrims.

    Originalveröffentlichung in: Karl Jettmar (Hrsg.) Cultures of the Hindukush. Selected papers from the Hindu-Kush Cultural Conference held at Moesgard 1970, Wiesbaden 1974, S. 39-43 IRANIAN INFLUENCE ON THE CULTURE OF THE HINDUKUSH Karl Jettmar German ethnologists called the Kafirs a megalithic people 1 2 ("Megalithvolk") or Kafiristan a "megalithic centre" , that is to say, the culture of the Kafirs was considered as a phenomenon strictly separated from the great civilizations of Western Asia. It seemed to be part of a cultural stratum which is otherwise accessible to us only by archaeology of far back periods (.3rd - 2nd millennia B.C.) or ethnography in distant regions (e.g. South­ east Asia and Indonesia). This tendency can be observed even in recent studies made by Snoy and myself. On the other hand, indologists tried to trace survivals of the religion of the Aryan immigrants to India in the folklore of the 3 mountains. I think such efforts are legitimate. But I would propose to start from a more cautious hypothesis. I think that every explanat­ ion of the religion of the Kafirs and the Dardic peoples has to take into regard that the singularity of Kafiristan and other mount­ ain areas indeed is preconditioned by geography but became really effective when the surrounding lowlands were conquered by the expand­ 4 ing force of Islam. A bar was laid which was not opened before the conversion of the mountain valleys themselves. For Kafiristan proper this means an isolate development between the 11th and the 19th centuries A.D. Before the 2nd millennium A.D.
