Commonly known as the city of ambitious and bold decision makers, New Tehri is the icon of progressive development and pride for its people. New Tehri is a model town, which came into existence after the old Tehri Town assumed its water grave. Heeding the need of the hour, to provide Electricity for the Tehri region, a huge Dam project on the massive Bhagirathi River was envisaged. Due to the dam, the old Tehri Town submerged in water, which brought the idea of a model Town (New Tehri) to life. Today this model Town is reality and is Asia's most comprehensive Resettlement exercise. New Tehri is situated on the banks of the Dam the beauty of which makes an attractive picture post card.
