On our way to Sindhupalchowk, our truck driver tells us, ‘The road here was blocked due to the landslide and look at those rocks, it can fall anytime on us’ and there he speedups in narrow, rocky roads. Well, the information wasn’t helping much.
On May 23 and 24, with the materials support from GOONJ, we have distributed food package to women survivors of the earthquake in Sukute – 30, Pangretar – 82 and Bahrabise – 150. As per the report most of the male population of Sindhupalchowk have gone abroad for employment, in the initial stage rescue efforts in the district had been carried out by women.
