Returning migrants in Sudurpaschim and Karnali face a bleak future. Government is still unclear how to provide help.

Three out of the eight people who had consumed the wild mushroom are undergoing treatment at Karnali Provincial Hospital in Surkhet.

Locals from areas at risk of landslides are currently taking shelter in nearby schools and playgrounds in makeshift tents.

While vegetables are abundant in the market, the fruits are less so, since the import from India has stopped.

Health workers deployed at the quarantine and isolation facilities have been using locally prepared protective equipment for personal safety.

Five and a half years since the tragedy struck, victims are still looking for help from the government.

As per the data available at the CIAA provincial office in Birendranagar, complaints have been filed against the representatives of all the local units of the province.

In the last fiscal year alone, the provincial government has allocated Rs400 million to upgrade the hospital.

The Surkhet Valley Drinking Water Consumers’ Committee is overseeing the project.

Ministry of Forest and Environment has already given permission to conduct an environmental impact assessment in six community forests.

There are 274 birthing centres across villages in the province, yet the plight of pregnent women and new mothers remains pitiable. Only this fiscal year, 40 women have been airlifted.

Most of the roads in the city are unmotorable—causing inconvenience for vehicles and pedestrians alike.

Local unit provided electricity and drinking water facilities to squatters living on public land of Surkhet Campus.

The embankments being built for the project will likely deluge 30 houses in the banks.

Because of male-dominated local units, plans and policies of the local units are not in favour of women in Dolpa.
