Dhunche has relief supplies. Getting aid to flood-hit Rasuwa villages is the problem
Summary
Flood-hit villages in Rasuwa remain cut off even as relief supplies pile up in Dhunche, forcing authorities to rely on helicopters and drones to deliver food and essentials. Officials say restoring roads, Bailey bridges and temporary crossings is the only lasting solution.
Key Points
- Relief supplies are reaching Dhunche, but flood-damaged roads have made it difficult to deliver them to isolated villages in Rasuwa.
- Local officials say helicopters and drones can only provide short-term help, while food stocks in village shops are running low.
- Authorities plan temporary rope crossings and Bailey bridges to reconnect cut-off communities.
- The National Human Rights Commission says the floods have disrupted drinking water, electricity and health services in affected areas.
