The Nanda Devi Group of glaciers is a reference to the cluster of seven glaciers namely Bartoli, Kururntoli, Nada Devi North, Nanda Devi South, Nandakna, Ramani and Trsul of Uttarakhand.[2]
The glacier rose to fame, due to its breaking, which led to the 2021 Uttarakhand flood. Climate change has been suggested to have contributed to the disaster.[3]
