Subject: Appeal by Super Senior LIC PENSIONERS.
To
The Secretary,
Department of Financial Services (DFS) Ministry of Finance, Government of India,
3rd Floor, Jeevan Deep Building,
Parliament Street,
New Delhi – 110 001.
Subject: Representation submitted to CEO & MD, LIC of India regarding adoption of Revised CCS (Pension) Rules, 2021 under Rule 56 of LICEP Rules, 1995 for Super-Senior Retirees.
Respected Sir,
We Super Senior LIC PENSIONERS are submitting herewith below our formal representation dated 5th September 2026, addressed to the Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director, Life Insurance Corporation of India, for your urgent personal attention and statutory consideration.
We write to you carrying the profound anxiety and dwindling hopes of thousands of octogenarian and nonagenarian pensioners who have served this public institution with utmost dedication.
Key Grounds for Central Government Intervention
Statutory Alignment via Rule 56: Under Rule 56 (Residuary Provisions) of the LIC Employees Pension Rules, 1995, matters relating to pension for which no express provision exists in LICEP Rules are governed by the corresponding provisions of the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules. As LICEP Rules contain no express provisions for age-based additional pension (e.g., 20% to 100% increment upon reaching 80, 85, 90, 95, and 100 years under CCS Rule 44) or periodic basic pension revision (CCS Rule 66), Rule 56 serves as the explicit statutory conduit intended by Parliament to extend these benefits.
The Administrative Impasse & Statutory Authority: LIC Management consistently maintains that under Section 48 of the LIC Act, 1956, final powers to notify or alter pension benefits rest exclusively with the Central Government (Ministry of Finance, DFS). While LIC has been requested to formally move a recommendation under Rule 56, the ultimate authority to issue the required Gazette Notification lies with your office.
Human Cost and Protracted Litigation: Our pension matters have remained pending before the Hon’ble Supreme Court since 2017 with over 44 adjournments. Over 27,000 LIC pensioners have passed away during this period without receiving final justice. Furthermore, despite the Supreme Court referring the matter to the Special Lok Adalat held in August, no resolution could be achieved due to lack of executive consent, leaving super-seniors in a state of continuous hardship.
Prayer
In view of the above, we humbly pray that the Department of Financial Services, Ministry of Finance, may kindly:
Invoke Section 48 read with Rule 56 of LICEP Rules, 1995 to issue an explicit Gazette Notification extending the benefits of the Revised CCS (Pension) Rules, 2021 (including age-based enhanced pension and revision norms) to LIC pensioners.
Provide an administrative direction to LIC of India to process and forward their formal concurrence under Rule 56 for immediate implementation.
Sir, time is rapidly running out for us. Your empathetic and swift executive intervention will grant vital relief in the evening of our lives.
Yours respectfully ,
FORUM FOR ALL INDIA LIC PENSIONERS.

Enclosures:
Copy of Representation addressed to CEO & MD, LIC of India. On Sat, 5 Sept, 2026.
To,
Shri R. Doraiswamy,
Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director,
Life Insurance Corporation of India, Central Office, Yogakshema, Jeevan Bima Marg,
Mumbai – 400 021.
Subject: Appeal by Super Senior LIC Pensioners for an Executive Recommendation by LIC to the Central Government under Rule 56 of LICEP Rules, 1995 for adoption of Revised CCS (Pension) Rules, 2021.
Respected Sir,
Super-senior LIC PENSIONERS, carrying the collective anguish, hope, and pleading voice of thousands of octogenarian and nonagenarian retirees who spent their finest years building this great institution.
We are confident that this appeal will receive your empathetic and personal attention.
Sir, a strange and deeply painful impasse has emerged for LIC pensioners:
Protracted Litigation & Delay: Our legitimate, rule-based demands have remained pending before the Hon’ble Supreme Court since 2017. With over 44 adjournments spanning nearly a decade, there is still no clear prospect of an early final hearing.
The Human and Financial Cost: This delay in justice has cost the lives of over 27,000 pensioners who passed away without seeing a resolution. Simultaneously, crores of rupees—both public funds and retirees' life savings—are being drained toward endless legal expenses.
The Special Lok Adalat Opportunity Lost: Most recently, when the Supreme Court referred our matter to the Special Lok Adalat held from 21st to 23rd August, an ideal opportunity for an amicable settlement arose. Unfortunately, both the Central Government and LIC refrained from giving consent, creating an unexpected deadlock that leaves us super-seniors—who are in the twilight of our lives—without recourse.
The Statutory Conduit: Rule 56 of LICEP Rules, 1995
While we fully recognize that under Section 48 of the LIC Act, 1956, final statutory powers to notify pension benefits rest with the Central Government (Ministry of Finance, DFS), there is a sharp divergence between what LIC can do under statutory principles versus what it has chosen to do.
Rule 56 (Residuary Provisions) of the LIC Employees Pension Rules, 1995 explicitly states:
"Matters relating to pension and other benefits in respect of which no express provision has been made in these rules shall be governed by the corresponding provisions contained in the Central Civil Services (Pension) Rules..."
Because LICEP Rules, 1995 contain no express provision for:
Age-based additional pension (e.g., 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and 100% enhancements upon reaching 80, 85, 90, 95, and 100 years under CCS PENSION Rule 44), or
Periodic basic pension REVISION under CCS PENSION Rule 66,
there is no direct statutory conflict.
Rule 56 serves as the explicit legal conduit designed by Parliament to adopt these updated Central provisions.
Retaining Rule 56 within our regulatory framework while denying its practical benefit creates an arbitrary administrative gap that severely impacts super-senior retirees who urgently require financial support for medical and end-of-life care.
The Silver Lining:
Your Leadership to Break the Ice
Though LIC management has refrained from implementing these rules independently, LIC possesses full legal and administrative standing to submit a formal corporate recommendation to the Central Government.
As CEO & MD, you hold the power to break this decade-long ice by formally moving a proposal to the Department of Financial Services (DFS), Ministry of Finance, stating:
"Under Rule 56 of the LIC Employees Pension Rules, 1995, LIC recommends adopting the Revised CCS (Pension) Rules, 2021 for LIC pensioners to extend age-based enhanced pension and revision norms."
Such a proactive step from your office will not only mitigate the suffering of dwindling super-seniors and uphold fundamental fairness, but it will also save crores of public funds currently being lost to litigation.
Sir, for those of us in our nineties, time is not a commodity we possess. WE humbly pray that you exercise your executive leadership and issue this recommendation to the Ministry of Finance without delay.
Soliciting the favor of an early and empathetic response.
Yours respectfully,
FORUM FOR ALL INDIA LIC PENSIONERS .

China’s $2.5 Billion Nepal Dam Turns Into Ruins, Massive Losses 5 Sept 2026 #chinaobserver
The worker in the video is a Nepali man named Raj Chhetri. As one of the survivors of the disaster at the Upper Trishuli-3A Hydropower Project, he gave an interview to Indian media outlet India Today on September 2. During the interview, he made an emotional accusation: Chinese supervisors stopped workers from escaping but left the site first themselves. 264 Comments @UrbanGardeningWithD.A.Hanks14 14 hours ago It's only a matter of time before Three Gorges Dam goes this route. China falling apart, literally. @Bill-m6g 16 hours ago CCP does not only not care about their own citizens they don't care about anyone but them selves. When will the world realize this? @lightgiver7311 17 hours ago
Human lives mean nothing to China. Transcript :When we were working inside, the storm suddenly hit, causing a power outage and the lights to go out. We told the Chinese supervisor that something was
0:1212 secondswrong and that it was dangerous. There was already an incident outside. We asked to leave, but he kept saying, "Keep working, keep working." Then he
0:2020 secondssaid he would go and check, but he ran away and left us trapped inside.
0:2424 secondsSuddenly, everything from above was swept away. Vehicles, material, and people. We started running for our lives. Luckily, our work area was right
0:3232 secondsnear the tunnel entrance, so we managed to escape.
0:3535 secondsThe worker in the video is a Nepalese man named Raj Tacherry as one of the survivors of the disaster at the upper
0:4242 secondstrishi 3A hydro power project. He gave an interview to Indian media outlet Indian today on September 2nd. During
0:5151 secondsthe interview, he made an emotional accusation. Chinese supervisors stopped workers from escaping but left the site
0:5858 secondsfirst themselves. Chicherryi recalled that after the supervisors left and never returned, flood waters and mud soon violently rushed into the tunnel.
1:071 minute, 7 secondsHe and three other workers managed to escape only because their work location happened to be close to the tunnel entrance. However, many other workers
1:161 minute, 16 secondsinside were unable to evacuate in time and became trapped. He estimated that around 265 workers were inside the
1:231 minute, 23 secondstunnel at the time. Chicherryi described the scene inside the tunnel as horrific.
1:271 minute, 27 secondsThe bodies of dead workers could already be seen while others were still alive and desperately calling for help. He said he faced an extremely painful
1:361 minute, 36 secondsdecision at the time whether to try to save others or save his own life first.
1:411 minute, 41 secondsAfter escaping the tunnel that was being swallowed by floodwaters, Chicherry and other survivors were forced to stay in the forest for the first few days,
1:491 minute, 49 secondssleeping under a tree. Because communications were cut off, the workers could not tell their families they had survived. It was only after mobile phone
1:571 minute, 57 secondsservices were restored that he was able to contact his family. Records show that the upper trishi 3A hydropower plant is
a major example of China Napole bilateral financing and construction cooperation and was promoted by China as a key belt and road initiative project.
2:152 minutes, 15 secondsThe plant had an installed capacity of 60 megawatt was financed by the export import bank of China and was built by the Chinese state-owned Gerolbar group.
2:272 minutes, 27 secondsIt was completed and connected to the power grid in 2019. The owner is the Nepal electricity authority. According
2:352 minutes, 35 secondsto Nepali media, on the day of the flooding, about 42 technicians were carrying out maintenance work in the underground powerhouse before they lost
2:432 minutes, 43 secondscontact. Chicherryi told the media that Chinese authorities failed to properly warn workers about the danger. He said the Chinese government's actions were
2:522 minutes, 52 secondswrong. They knew about the flooding and landslide situation. If we had received the information beforehand, many lives and properties could have been saved.
3:013 minutes, 1 secondAfter the video was posted on X, it continued to gain attention. One user mocked, "This is typical of the CCP's
3:083 minutes, 8 secondsway of doing things. Let the leaders leave first. There are precedents for this. It used to happen inside China,
3:163 minutes, 16 secondsand now it has spread overseas." Another commenter wrote, "It's true. In China, those managers treat Chinese workers the
3:233 minutes, 23 secondssame way." Another user said, "Workers have the right to evacuate and refuse dangerous work, but not under the Chinese Communist system." The Communist
3:313 minutes, 31 secondsParty has never treated Chinese people as human beings. But some users pointed out that many Chinese workers may also have been trapped underground. They said
3:403 minutes, 40 secondsif the Chinese four men had not been swept away by the flood, he likely would have already escaped back to China.
3:473 minutes, 47 secondsNepal is currently organizing emergency rescue operations. The tunnel connecting the upper Trishi 3A hydropower plant to
3:553 minutes, 55 secondsthe underground powerhouse is more than 2.5 mi long. The mudslide carrying massive rock and debris completely
4:034 minutes, 3 secondsblocked the tunnel entrance and multiple section inside with roads and communications cut off by the disaster.
4:104 minutes, 10 secondsRescue operations inside the underground tunnel have faced enormous challenges.
4:154 minutes, 15 secondsOn September 4th, the 10th day after the disaster, Nepal's rescue team made a breakthrough at the Upper Trishuli 3A
4:224 minutes, 22 secondsproject site. Rescuers successfully saved two Nepali workers who' had been trapped for more than 9 days.
4:294 minutes, 29 seconds30-year-old mechanical foreman Sanj Sa and 45-year-old mechanical supervisor Kabir Mahajan both were conscious when
4:384 minutes, 38 secondsthey were rescued and were later flown by helicopter to a hospital in Cathandu for treatment. Australian tunnel expert
4:464 minutes, 46 secondsArnold Dixs, who helped guide the rescue operation, described finding the survivors as a miracle on top of a
4:534 minutes, 53 secondsmiracle. Rescuers first had to locate the tunnel entrance in a destroyed river valley, then crawl inside through a
5:005 minutesnarrow gap along the top of the cable tunnel. It is worth noting that rescued mechanical foreman Sanjay Sa revealed in an interview that when the flood waters
rushed in, he was actively helping other workers evacuate from the control room, causing him to miss his best chance to
5:155 minutes, 15 secondsescape. He said that at the time, three or four workers nearby were still in contact with him and they could have been more people trapped deeper inside the tunnel.
5:265 minutes, 26 secondsSAR's actions created a striking contrast with the Chinese supervisor mentioned earlier. Both were site managers. Basar chose to put others
5:355 minutes, 35 secondslives first, risking his own safety to help his colleagues escape. The Chinese supervisor, however, allegedly ordered lower level workers to continue working during the crisis before fleeing alone.
5:465 minutes, 46 secondsThe two completely different choices highlight the contrast between a bureaucratic management culture that disregard human life under the CCP
5:545 minutes, 54 secondssystem and the basic sense of humanitarian responsibility found in normal social environments. According to
6:026 minutes, 2 secondsfollow-up reports from the Cathmenu post, after rescuing the two survivors, search teams searched the accessible
6:086 minutes, 8 secondsareas of the upper Trishuli 3A project and recovered more bodies, but found no additional survivors. Up to 39 missing
6:176 minutes, 17 secondsworkers may still be trapped beneath deep layers of compact mud and debris.
6:236 minutes, 23 secondsIn recent years, under the belt and road initiative framework, Chinese companies have played a key role in Nepal's infrastructure development,
6:306 minutes, 30 secondsparticipating as both financiers and contractors. In 2019 alone, China's total investment in Nepole reached $2.4
6:396 minutes, 39 secondsbillion US with hydro power projects and factory construction among the main areas of focus. However, these massive
6:476 minutes, 47 secondsprojects built across environmentally sensitive and geologically fragile areas suffered severe damage during this once- ina century flood disaster. The Trishi
6:576 minutes, 57 secondsRiver Basin is one of Nepal's most concentrated hydro power corridors and a region with a high concentration of
7:047 minutes, 4 secondsChinese funded projects. Nepalese authorities said more than 10 power plants in the area were damaged or
7:117 minutes, 11 secondscompletely destroyed causing about $2.5 billion US in infrastructure losses. The disaster has also brought an extremely
7:197 minutes, 19 secondsheavy cost for Chinese companies involved in these projects. Besides the previously mentioned upperatrically 3A hydrop power plant where Chinese
7:287 minutes, 28 secondscompanies played a major role, another major project drawing attention is the upper trishi one hydro power plant. The
7:357 minutes, 35 secondsmassive project has a total investment of $647 million US and an installed capacity of
7:447 minutes, 44 seconds$260 megawatt. South Korean companies serve as the main contractor while Power China is the key civil engineering
7:537 minutes, 53 secondssubcontractor responsible for critical work including dam construction and tunnel excavation. The project's water
8:018 minutes, 1 seconddiversion tunnel stretches about 5.9 mi and has a horseshoe shaped excavation
8:088 minutes, 8 secondsprofile measuring 24.6 ft across. When the disaster struck, construction was
8:158 minutes, 15 secondsalready 84% complete and the project was expected to be finished by the end of the year. Instead, the site was turned
8:228 minutes, 22 secondsinto ruins within moments after being hit by the mudslide. Damage to the upstream dam reached 90% leaving the future of reconstruction uncertain.
8:338 minutes, 33 secondsAnother flagship belt and road initiative project, the Rasuagardi hydro power plant, also suffered severe damage with the project site and surrounding
facilities heavily destroyed. The project's most critical civil engineering work, including the dam, underground powerhouse and tunnels, was
8:508 minutes, 50 secondscarried out by China International Water and Electric Corporation, a subsidiary of the three gorgeous group. The
8:578 minutes, 57 secondsdisaster also cut off a major transportation route connecting China and Nepole. The Saiya Brewesi Rasuaguadi
9:049 minutes, 4 secondsHighway built with Chinese assistance suffered severe damage. In some sections, mud deposits rose about 330 ft
9:139 minutes, 13 secondsabove the original ground level. The complete disruption of the road has severely hampered crossber rescue operations and the delivery of supplies.
9:239 minutes, 23 secondsAlong with the enormous economic losses came a devastating human toll. As of September 4th, nearly 900 workers across
9:319 minutes, 31 secondsaffected hydropower projects in Nepole remained missing. The UT1 project alone had at least 557 workers from multiple
9:399 minutes, 39 secondscountries missing, including about 115 people trapped inside underground water diversion tunnels. Many of them were
9:459 minutes, 45 secondsChinese workers. The tunnel, where the largest number of people remain trapped, was also a core project built by a
9:539 minutes, 53 secondsChinese company. Ironically, just months earlier, official channels from companies such as Cenino Hydro Bureau 6
10:0110 minutes, 1 secondhad publicly celebrated the project, claiming it was completed successfully 15 days ahead of schedule and highlighting its digital monitoring
10:1010 minutes, 10 secondssystem to showcase the strength of China's infrastructure capabilities. But videos posted by Chinese workers on social media revealed a very different
10:1810 minutes, 18 secondsreality at the construction site. A Chinese worker involved in local construction uploaded footage from tunnel work in October 2023. The video
10:2710 minutes, 27 secondsshowed a dark and cramped underground workspace. The ground was covered with rocks and muddy water while cables and pipes were scattered and partially
10:3610 minutes, 36 secondssubmerged. The rock walls appeared to lack sufficient support with workers and excavators operating together in a narrow area facing significant collapse
10:4510 minutes, 45 secondsrisk. The so-called infrastructure superpower promoted by the CCP appears to have been built on severely reduced
10:5310 minutes, 53 secondssafety protections and disregard for workers' lives. What is even more troubling is the Chinese government's
10:5910 minutes, 59 secondsresponse after the disaster. CNN reports multiple Chinese companies were involved in infrastructure projects in a poll.
11:0711 minutes, 7 secondsMore than 100 Chinese citizens went missing after the disaster, but their families in China struggled to obtain reliable rescue information. In the
11:1511 minutes, 15 secondsearly days after the disaster, Chinese state media focused only on rescue efforts on the Tibet side of the border while avoiding details about damage to
11:2411 minutes, 24 secondsChinese funded projects in Nepole and the fate of missing workers. At the same time, online platforms deleted disaster
11:3211 minutes, 32 secondsvideos and rescue messages posted by users. Authorities also announced the arrest of more than 10 people accused of
11:4011 minutes, 40 secondsspreading rumors about the scale of the disaster. Despite questions over transparency, China's foreign ministry
11:4711 minutes, 47 secondsclaimed that China had released information openly, transparently, and in a timely manner. A woman identified
11:5511 minutes, 55 secondsonly as Lily said her husband lost contact after the mudslide while working on a road repair project built by Tibet
Tenlu, but lost contact after the mudslide. Although Tibet Tenlu announced online that it had sent personnel to the
12:1012 minutes, 10 secondsdisaster hit Giron port area in Tibet family worried at that actual construction site was in Sopole and that
12:1812 minutes, 18 secondsrescue efforts could become trapped by border restrictions.
12:2212 minutes, 22 secondsAnother family member Jun said his father was trapped at the UT1 project.
12:2712 minutes, 27 secondsHe repeatedly called official inquiry hotlines but could not get through and contacting the embassy also produced no results. In desperation, some family
12:3712 minutes, 37 secondsmembers traveled to state-owned enterprise headquarters in Lasha to seek answers. They also jointly drafted a petition urging Tibetum officials to
12:4512 minutes, 45 secondscoordinate crossber rescue efforts. The families pointed to the main obstacle.
12:5012 minutes, 50 secondsNepal's rescue teams could not reach the core disaster area. While Chinese rescuers were unable to enter because of
12:5712 minutes, 57 secondsborder restrictions, they pleaded with authorities to establish an information sharing system and accelerate rescue
13:0413 minutes, 4 secondsoperations. As official crossber rescue efforts remained slow, information was limited, Chinese workers stranded in
13:1113 minutes, 11 secondsNepole organized their own search operation on September 3rd. Carrying basic tools, they searched desperately
13:1713 minutes, 17 secondsalong the entrance of a 6.2 mile tunnel completely blocked by ice, rocks, and thick mud for their missing co-workers.
13:2613 minutes, 26 secondsA massive infrastructure project costing hundreds of millions of dollars was destroyed within moments by the mudslide. What remained was the
13:3313 minutes, 33 secondsdesperate effort by ordinary workers to save one another and the grief of countless families. The disaster exposed a risk behind the current model of
13:4213 minutes, 42 secondsoverseas infrastructure expansion. The government's response after the disaster also echoed the actions of the Chinese supervisors who allegedly fled during
13:5013 minutes, 50 secondsthe crisis. In the pursuit of political narratives and engineering goals, the lives of ordinary workers appear to be ignored. The CCP often promotes the
13:5913 minutes, 59 secondsslogan serve the people. But when workers face life and death situations overseas and need state assistance, many receive little meaningful help and are
14:0814 minutes, 8 secondsleft to survive on their own. A detailed report by Malaysia China Press pointed to a broader ecological crisis behind
14:1614 minutes, 16 secondsthe disaster. In recent years, rapid infrastructure developments by China, India, and Nepole across the Himalayas
14:2414 minutes, 24 secondshas accelerated damage to one of the world's most fragile geological regions.
14:2914 minutes, 29 secondsKnown as Earth's third pole and the youngest major mountain range, the Himalayas sit along an active tectonic
14:3714 minutes, 37 secondszone and are highly sensitive to earthquakes and climate change. Yet, instead of respecting these natural limits, humans have pushed heavy
14:4614 minutes, 46 secondsmachinery into this fragile region in an attempt to conquer nature. Among the three countries involved, China's development drive has been most
14:5514 minutes, 55 secondsextensive. As early as 1951, after Chinese forces entered Tibet, geological and hydraological survey teams began
15:0315 minutes, 3 secondslargecale exploration of the region's resources. Today, Tibet has more than 100 recorded hydropower plants. The
15:1215 minutes, 12 secondsscale and density of these projects are extraordinary. Along just a 24-mile stretch of the middle Yalan Sor River,
15:2115 minutes, 21 secondsauthorities have planned five dams, including four dams higher than 330 ft.
Some neighboring dams are only 5 to 6 mi apart further downstream in the Yalon Sour Grand Canyon near Midog.
15:3615 minutes, 36 secondsAuthorities have also proposed a massive hydropower project with a claimed capacity equivalent to three three
15:4315 minutes, 43 secondsgorgeous dams. With Tibet's vast territory and sparse population, local electricity demand cannot absorb such
15:5115 minutes, 51 secondsenormous power output. Critics argue that the real purpose of these mega projects lies beneath the mountains.
15:5815 minutes, 58 secondsAssessing strategic mineral resources including gold, copper, lithium, and molib denim. Extracting these resources
16:0616 minutes, 6 secondsrequire enormous amounts of electricity to operate heavy machinery and process ores. Dams, high voltage power lines,
16:1416 minutes, 14 secondsmountain roads, and deep mines have created a complete resource extraction chain. Under this model, the Himalaya
16:2116 minutes, 21 secondsmountains are no longer untouched ecological sanctuaries, but have become a massive resource zone driven by state
16:2816 minutes, 28 secondsdevelopment goals. China Press citing international experts reported that there is currently no direct evidence
16:3616 minutes, 36 secondsproving that the Npole floods which killed more than 1,000 people were directly caused by human development.
16:4216 minutes, 42 secondsHowever, large scale high alitude construction has clearly increased the risk and destructive impact of natural
16:4916 minutes, 49 secondsdisasters. The environmental damage caused by hydropower projects is often gradual but potentially devastating.
16:5616 minutes, 56 secondsFirst, construction can cause irreversible damage to mountain structures. Building dams and dozens of miles of water diversion tunnels in the
17:0317 minutes, 3 secondsHimalayas requires frequent and powerful blasting. These vibrations can further weaken already fragile rock formations filled with faults and cracks due to
17:1217 minutes, 12 secondstheir tectonic pressure. Each blast increases a risk of future landslides.
17:1717 minutes, 17 secondsSecond, massive amounts of construction waste and mining waste create serious hazards. Millions of tons of rocks excavated from tunnels and mining waste
17:2617 minutes, 26 secondsproduced during ore processing are often dumped along steep valleys to reduce costs. The 2013 collapse at the GMA mine
17:3417 minutes, 34 secondsin Tibet, which killed 83 workers, was linked to the failure of illegally accumulated mining waste under
17:4217 minutes, 42 secondsgravitational pressure. In Nepole's Trishuli River Valley, piles of construction debris and building materials along the river became deadly
17:5117 minutes, 51 secondsweapons when combined with glaci triggered mud flows. Floodwaters carrying artificial debris and concrete blocks dramatically increase the
17:5917 minutes, 59 secondsdestructive force, cutting through everything in the valley like a giant grinder filled with steel fragments.
18:0518 minutes, 5 secondsFinally, massive reservoirs can alter local geological stress. Building dams and storing huge volumes of water in
18:1318 minutes, 13 secondsdeep mountains valleys places enormous pressure on active fault zones, potentially triggering reservoir induced earthquakes. Frequent changes in water
18:2218 minutes, 22 secondslevels can also weaken mountain slopes and contribute to largecale collapses.
18:2718 minutes, 27 secondsThe CCP claims of man can conquer nature and its infrastructure superpower image appear reckless in the face of the
18:3418 minutes, 34 secondsfragile third pole. Instead of controlling nature, such development may be creating risk for future disasters.
18:4118 minutes, 41 secondsThe massive mudslide has become a harsh warning about the consequences of aggressive resource exploitation.
