Manang, January 24

Life in Manang district of Province 4 has been adversely affected by the snowfall accompanied by winds since 2 pm on Tuesday.

The district has been cut off from communications as the snowfall has made the telephone towers dysfunctional, Chief District Officer, Hari Prasad Panta, says.

Meanwhile, 10 foreign tourists who entered the district on Tuesday and left for upper Manang from Chame are out of communications.

The District Administration Office says that the inclement weather has prevented officials from sending any rescue team.

Nasong, Nesyang and Narpu in Upper Manang Valley beyond Danakyu are all blanketed by snow.
