 Several state-run institutions, including ISRO, have been directed by the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and the Uttarakhand government not to interact with the media or share information on social media on the Joshimath situation without prior approval.

The direction came after satellite images released by the Indian Space Research Orgnisation showed the rapid rate of subsidence in Joshinath between Dec 27 and January 8, fuelling concerns over the situation, even as Uttarakhand Minister Dhayan Singh Rawat said on Saturday that the ISRO images have been withdrawn.

The statements on Joshimath are creating confusion not only among affected residents but also among citizens of the country, the NDMA said.

It said people associated with them should not interact with the media and share data on social media regarding the ground subsidence in Joshimath.

The NDMA asked the organisations to sensitise its experts about the matter and added they should refrain from posting anything on media platforms until the final report of the expert group is released by the NDMA.

In a similar communication, the Uttarakhand government conveyed to the organisations that some of the institutions and agencies are publishing and uploading information or reports about Joshimath without taking due permission from competent authorities, which is adversely impacting the ground situation as well as triggering panic among the community.

The media is also propagating this blatantly, it said.

The communication said the organisations, before publishing or uploading any such reports or information, should obtain prior approval either from the respective central ministries or the Uttarakhand State Disaster Management Authority.

The Congress slammed the alleged gag order.

“Instead of solving the crisis and finding solutions to the problems of people, government agencies are putting a ban on ISRO reports and stopping its officials from interacting with the media. Narendra Modi ji, ‘Do Not Shoot the Messenger’,” Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge tweeted
