Why Nepal's glacial lakes demand Indian action

Nepal’s ambitious six-year plan to drain four high-altitude glacial lakes — Thulagi, Lower Barun, Lumding Tsho and Hongu-2 — is born of sheer urgency. Following a catastrophic flood along the China-Nepal border that left more than 1,450 dead and thousands missing, Kathmandu is scrambling to mitigate future disasters.

New Delhi cannot afford to view this as a purely domestic Nepali affair. For India, providing immediate technical support, data sharing and early warning systems to Nepal is proactive flood defense for its own northern plains. The catastrophic August deluge surged from the Lhende Khola into the Bhote Koshi, then wound through the Trishuli and Narayani rivers before crossing into India as the Gandak river to join the Ganga.

The primary threat is rarely a sudden wall of water but rather an acute, destabilizing volume surge delivered to rivers already swollen by monsoons and hemmed in by fragile embankments. The 2008 Koshi embankment breach at Kusaha permanently altered the river's course, displacing over 2.3 million people in northern Bihar.
