The disastrous flood tide event of 2013 in Kedarnath stands as a stark testament to the vulnerability of Himalayan regions to the impacts of climate change. This paper trials to cave deep into the intricate dynamics between climate change and the heightened frequence and intensity of flood tide events in Kedarnath, with a keen focus on expounding sustainable disaster operation and mitigation strategies. Through a scrupulous examination of climatological trends, hydrological modeling ways, and socio- profitable factors, this exploration aims to unravel the underpinning causes of the 2013 disaster and propose comprehensive measures to alleviate unborn pitfalls. The original section of the paper explores the climatic environment of the Himalayan region, slipping light on the prevailing trends in temperature, rush, and glacial dynamics. By assaying meteorological factors similar as extreme rush events and monsoonal variability, the intricate interplay between climate change and flood tide circumstances is illustrated. Moving forward, the hydrological dynamics and flood tide threat assessment are strictly examined through the lens of sophisticated modeling ways and hazard mapping methodologies. The operation of hydrological models, coupled with the integration of climate change protrusions, provides precious perceptivity into the implicit counteraccusations for flood tide threat in Kedarnath.The socio- profitable impacts of flood tide events are scanned, unraveling the profound ramifications on livelihoods, structure, and original communities. Through a comprehensive vulnerability assessment, the paper highlights the disproportionate burden borne by marginalized populations and underscores the imperative for community- grounded adaption strategies.In response to these challenges, sustainable disaster operation and mitigation strategies are proposed, encompassing ecosystem- grounded approaches, structure adaptability measures, and policy interventions. By championing for ecosystem restoration, flexible structure design, and enhanced governance fabrics, the paper seeks to foster a holistic approach to disaster threat reduction in Kedarnath and analogous vulnerable regions. In conclusion, the paper underscores the pressing need for visionary measures to address the raising pitfalls posed by climate change- convinced cataracts. By embracing a multidisciplinary approach that integrates scientific exploration, community engagement, and policy reforms, the vulnerabilities of Himalayan regions can be effectively eased, paving the way for a more flexible and sustainable future.
