The dam of 10 MW, Sunkoshi Hydropower Project at
Sindhupalchowk, central Nepal is in danger of collapsing due to damage caused
by last month’s landslide and flood. Four out of its six gates have been
obstructed by stones and sand and there is probability of further damage if
water continues to flow through the dam. Electricity generation at present is
completely terminated but there is probability of resuming in a years’ time if
the dam does not suffer further.
