Dehradun : The rescue teams engaged in clearing muck from the slush-choked tunnel of NTPC ’s Tapovan-Vishnugad hydro-power project are facing problems due to constant seepage of water in the tunnel. According to Swati Bhadoriya, Chamoli district magistrate, “The water is continuously seeping into the tunnel, which is creating problems for the teams working there to clear the muck. This is despite over half a dozen water pumping machines having been pressed into service.” Sources in the rescue teams told TOI that water from the Dhauliganga river is also entering the tunnel as after the February 7 flash-floods, the river bed and the tunnel bed are at the same elevation.

Stories can change people: Jane Fonda calls for representation in Cecil B DeMille Award speech
Art has not just walked in step with history but has led the way, said Hollywood veteran Jane Fonda , who emphasised the need for more diversity in the entertainment industry during her acceptance speech for the Cecil B DeMille Award at the 2021 Golden Globes. Citing the power of storytelling, the 83-year-old actor-activist urged for colleagues to show leadership, representation and denounce favouritism in Hollywood. "Stories, they really can change people. But there's a story we've been afraid to see and hear about ourselves in this industry, a story about which voices we respect and elevate and which we tune out, a story about who is offered a seat at the table and who is kept out of the rooms where decisions are made," Fonda said. "So let's all of us, including all the groups that decide who gets hired and what gets made and who wins awards, let's all of us make an effort to expand that tent so that everyone rises and everyone's story has a chance to be seen and heard," she ... » Learn More about Stories can change people: Jane Fonda calls for representation in Cecil B DeMille Award speech
