A fire broke out in a forest inside the Langtang National Park in Rasuwa on Sunday.

National Park's chief conservation officer Yubraj Regmi said that the fire suddenly erupted from the bank of the Trishuli river at the Brabal Pakha area.

Officers and personnel of the Nepal Army Kalijung Battalion as well as the employees of the national park are engaged in fighting the fire.

It is said the difficult terrain (cliff face) and windy condition is making the job of containing the fire difficult. RSS
