After water breach, 'Doomsday' vault to get â¹28 cr upgrade
Norway's Global Seed Vault, meant to preserve world's crops from "doomsday" scenarios, is getting a $4.4 million (â¹28 crore) upgrade after meltwater breached through its tunnel last month. The $9 million vault, buried 130 metres inside a mountain, houses almost a million samples and is expected to protect against "natural or man-made disasters" and "to stand the test of time".
