Uttarakhand, September 17: Demanding 25 per cent of power generated from 2400 MM Tehri Hydel project, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Ramesh Pokhariyal Nishank on Friday asked THDC officials to compensate the damages done due to increasing the water level of its reservoir that posed threat to human habitation.
During a meeting, Nishank also asked the THDC officials to carry out a survey of the area, to be submerged when the reservoir level reaches 835 meter, and send a proposal to the Centre for compensation and rehabilitation of the affected population, an official release said.
He asked the corporation officials to work in tandem with Tehri district administration while taking a decision to raise the water level of the reservoir.
