The frequent natural disasters in Uttarakhand have had a devastating impact on the lives of its residents, particularly those in remote mountainous areas. Thousands of homes have been destroyed or damaged, leaving many families displaced. The 2013 Kedarnath disaster alone resulted in 580 deaths, 4,473 injuries, and over 5,526 missing persons, severely affecting religious tourism and the local economy. The state's vulnerability is exacerbated by unplanned development, climate change, and the fragile Himalayan terrain, posing ongoing risks to both human lives and infrastructure.
