Inside Uttarakhand’s 3500+ ghost towns! 💔

Register Now for Odoo's tech and business event: https://www.odoo.com/r/WMwq Uttarakhand ke 3,500+ gaon ab ghost village ban chuke hain. I went to Garhwal, Uttarakhand, a state carved out in 2000, but now the villages are vanishing. What I saw there was concerning: • A village called Jhala once had 50-70 residents. Today: zero. Not one person left. • Pauri is Uttarakhand's most educated district, but 1,600 schools have shut because there are no children left to teach.  • 8 lakh+ people have migrated out of the state in the last 14 years alone. • Some villages are 4-6 hours from the nearest hospital. • 900+ people have died in wildlife attacks since 2000, pushing entire families to abandon their homes. Ye saare gaaon nakshe pe to hai, par zameen pe nahi. Why are these villages empty? Why are people migrating? What actually happened here? ****************** Credits: Host: Kavya, Mohak Production Lead: Jyotsna Richhariya (@jytsna) Producer: Shashank Raj (@itsshashankraj) , Jyotsna Researcher: Antara DOP: Gaurav Mandal (@gurvmndl ) and Ankit Bisht (@ankittbishttt) Lead Editor: Jeevan Bora (@jeeone.bora) Second Editor: Shashank Raj (@itsshashankraj) Background Song: Dekh Bhai (by Martand Badoni) ****************** My Gears for shooting this video: Sony A7s3 - https://amzn.to/3XaeyjE Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 (Lens) - https://amzn.to/44lM4qZ Sony 16–35mm F2.8 GM II (Lens) - https://amzn.to/47RnWPt Sony NP-FZ100 (Battery) - https://amzn.to/485RV53 DJI MIC 2 (Mic) - https://amzn.to/3LO4Ktc DJI MIC 2 (Single) - https://amzn.to/4iaHRw9 Rode Video mic - https://amzn.to/4rYunIl insta360 X5 (360 Camera) - https://amzn.in/d/fOzTsuI ********************* Timestamps 00:00: 3,500+ empty ghost villages of Uttarakhand 04:13: The empty temple 05:18: 80 year old lady forced to stay alone 06:43: The abandoned school 09:19: The ones who couldn't leave 10:19: How Uttarakhand became a state 12:53: Migration from hometown 14:37: The hardworking women of Uttarakhand 17:34: Wildlife attacks and the 150-year-old house 19:21: Life in the Empty Village and broken healthcare About me: KK Create is a channel run by Kavya Karnatac.
