Old Tehri Garhwal
One can well imagine the sentiments of the present and past residents of Tehri Town at this moment of its death. It is indeed a sad moment, for, in a few months, the Capital of the erstwhile State of Tehri Garhwal, and many of its villages, will disappear forever in the waters of River Bhagirathi, never to be seen again. People of this ancient town are coming from all over the country and even from outside, to have a last glimpse of the town, perhaps to see for the last time the house they were born in, the rooms they knew so well, where they slept in the comfort of their mother’s and grandmother’s arms, and the courtyard they spent their childhood playing in, disappear for ever in the watery grave, leaving only their memories to them. Sad! But then life itself is such. We must not, however, dwell too much on the past, but look to the future with hope now. In a few months time the area will become a vast expanse of water, surrounded by mountains.
