    7:33 1987 was 35 years ago. There has been a lot of technological advancements since then.
    For example: instead of this open loop system (the dam in question) you should use solar power for energy generation. Get good quality panels which will last 30-40 yrs (no make in India plz lol).
    For storage of solar energy, they should use close loop systems. They cause virtually zero damage to environment and do not require drastic changes in river flow. The submersion impact is minimal and can be reduced by making pumped hydro projects away from habitation, mostly made in old mines.
    India, as of know, has zero pumped hydro projects.
    For ppl who don't know what close loop hydroelectric plants are you can Wiki Pumped Hydro, the gist of it is that it uses water/potential energy as a battery; where solar energy pumps water from lower height to higher during the day and that water runs a turbine while going down to make electricity. There are a lot of plants in countries like US, China (even Japan has 1 that's 2 GigaWatt)

      Nuclęar power plant is the only option we have right now until nuclęar fusion becomes a reality.In Japan and Rusią they were not properly planned.
      FYI Himalayas are growing mountains.It's just a rubble piled upon each other very sensitive mountains.If one thing gets disturbed everything gets disturbed.To build hydropower dams they are boring tunnels through the mountains 3-5 kms inside.If little sesmological movement happens entire mountains will collapse and what will happen to the water bodies down is UNIMAGINABLE!!!!!
      Look at Tehri dam the first disas+er.It has a life of 10-15 years max because the silt has come right to the top and it cannot be dredged further because dredging is more expensive than building the dam.Anyway it will become defunct like Hirakud and Bakhranangal.
      We should make UTTARAKHAND the SWITZERLAND of Asia.It is more beautiful than SWITZERLAND I believe Now SWITZERLAND earns 45 billi0n d0llars per year just through tourism.Why are we not??????
