The North East People's Alliance (NEPA) has urged all the Chief Ministers of north-eastern states to immediately put a halt to all mega dams in the region keeping in view the recent massive earthquake in Japan.
Expressing concern over the recent earthquake, the organisation urges the respective State Governments to think clear before heading with the mega dam projects being planned in the region.
“The earthquake comes as nature's reminder to all of us in the north-east as we sit on the highest earth quake zone V,” NEPA said in a statement today.
