Chinese scientists have identified an active fault line beneath the Yarlung Tsangpo dam construction zone. This geological finding raises significant concerns for India regarding water security and ecological damage. The dam, intended as the world's largest hydropower project, faces potential structural instability issues. India has long sought greater transparency and consultation from Beijing on this vital river. The new scientific evidence strengthens India's position for increased data sharing.

New analysis brings call for slope reinforcement for massive mega-dam project in Tibet to mitigate risks of landslides and collapses.

Research emerging from China points to structural vulnerabilities and geological threats which make foundation-bearing capacity of projects near Paizhen Fault more susceptible to…
