ASI has found that the world's highest Shiva temple, Tungnath, in Uttarakhand's Rudraprayag district, at an elevation of 12,800 feet, is tilting at an inclination of around five to six degrees. The lesser buildings in the compound of the temple are also tilting by up to 10 degrees. The notion of earth subsidence has not been completely disregarded by ASI authorities who are looking into the source of the tilt.
