ZetTalk: India 7 of 10 Tilt

Though the Indo-Australian Plate is sometimes referred to as two separate plates, this plate operates as one and will continue to do so. Where Indonesia at the southern edge will lose approximately 80 feet in elevation, the curve of the Indo-Australian Plate nestling this southern edge of the tongue will not gain that much in elevation. Bangladesh will find some of its recently submerged islands suddenly reappearing, and the tides will not roll inland as far as formerly. Overall, perhaps a 15 foot gain in elevation, though this is short term as the continent of India will continue to submerge as time marches on toward the pole shift. What occurs in the pushing down of the tongue holding Indonesia is a drama occurring under the water, in the main.

One can see from elevation or relief maps that the submerged land to the south of Sumatra and Java are not under deep, but under relatively shallow water. We have described Sumatra and Java as land formed by the scraping of the tongue holding Indonesia, and pushed back along the tongue holding Indonesia by the edge of the Indo-Australian Plate. This will again occur, but as the tongue overall is pushed down, the scrapings will not produce new mountain ranges above the waves but only jumble under the waves. The western edge of India, where the Indus River region in Pakistan is sinking, will likewise not experience that much loss of elevation, commensurate with the eastern edge of India, perhaps a 10 foot drop. What is occurring in India is not where the 7 of 10 action will be focused, at least not in the public eye.

We have predicted that the western edge of India will only lose 10 feet of elevation during the 7 of 10, and given the degree of flooding that Pakistan is already experiencing, Karachi has already experienced some of this elevation loss. The flooding in Pakistan, however, is afflicting the Indus River valley to the east of Karachi at this time, on that portion of Pakistan lying on the plate holding India. When the tongue holding Indonesia drops, Karachi will experience great quakes and crumbling, but overall this city will not sink.

6 September, 2014. Jammu & Kashmir facing ‘worst flood in 60 years’, death toll touches 160

The death toll in the Jammu & Kashmir floods has risen to 160 as the floods, the worst the state has seen in 60 years, affected a staggering 2,500 villages, Union home minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday said as he assured help to deal with the grim situation.

Rajnath Singh told reporters at the Jammu airport that “160 people have lost their lives in these floods. Floods of this magnitude have hit Jammu & Kashmir after 60 years.” He said 2,500 villages were affected, out of which 450 were completely submerged.

The home minister arrived in the state earlier in the day on a day’s visit to take stock of the flood situation. Rajnath Singh said in Srinagar that he had met chief minister Omar Abdullah and senior officials who briefed him about the severity of the situation.

“If there is so much devastation in the city, I wonder what would be the situation like in rural areas,” Singh said, who had to cancel an aerial tour because of inclement weather.

“I want to assure the people and the government of Jammu & Kashmir that the central government stands beside you in your hour of crisis and we extend all necessary help to you,” he said. Source: timesofindia.indiatimes.com

5 September, 2014. Catastrophic floods wreak havoc in Kashmir

The wedding season in Kashmir, which has defiantly continued through military curfews and unrest in the Indian-administered state in the past, has been marred by the worst flooding in decades, which on Thursday swept away a bus packed with wedding guests in its muddy, violent waters.

Seventy of the passengers remain missing and rescuers, fighting their way through the deluge, have still been unable to locate the bus, according to state officials. Source: washingtonpost.com

6 September, 2014. India Pakistan flood toll passes 200

More than 200 people have been killed in flooding caused by heavy rain across large swathes of India and Pakistan, reports say.

At least 110 people were killed by downpours in Pakistani-administered Kashmir and Punjab, officials said.

About 100 people also died in Indian-administered Kashmir, as the floodwaters washed away houses and triggered landslides, officials said. Source: bbc.com
