Kathmandu, August 21
Home Minister Ram Bahadur Thapa has gone to Ramaroshan of Achham in Sudurpaschim to distribute various relief materials to the locals hit by a devastating flood earlier this week.
Six persons died on Wednesday when the flooded Kailash Khola stream washed away an entire human settlement. Other 11 locals are still missing since.
The minister’s secretariat says the minister-led team flew to Achham via Surkhet this morning.
Commerce and Supplies Minister Lekh Raj Bhatta, lawmakers Bhim Rawal, Sher Bahadur Kunwar, and Tara Man Kunwar, home minister’s advisors Surya Subedi and Indra Jit Rai, and National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority’s chief Anil Pokhrel have also accompanied the minister.
