1 dam, 2 projects, many fools?
Posted on 22 Dec, 2013 05:49 PMI was looking for Greenko’s 24.75 MW Perla Mini Hydel Project at Perla village near Bantwal, Mangalore.

Drilling the hills to devastation
Posted on 08 Dec, 2013 10:50 PMClear blue skies, natural springs and glacial peaks-tranquility. Falling stones, landslides and debris-chaos! Kinnaur, located on the northeastern side of Himachal Pradesh, lets you experience both. It falls in seismic zones IV and V, which means it runs the the risk of damaging and destructive earthquakes.
