Devastating Earthquake in Nepal
Sandip Regmi, Pokhara, May 8, 2015
On the Nepali Date: 2072-01-12 at 11:56 AM(April 25 2015) there was the second biggest Earthquake in Nepal. The Earthquake is about 7.8 rectors, which affected more than 10 Districts of Nepal. The number of Deaths from the Earthquakes has reached around 8000 across the Country. Another more than 15000 People are being treated for injuries. Historical Buildings and Houses were completely damaged. Districts like Sindhupalchowk, Kathmandu, Nuwakot, Dhading, Gorkha, Rasuwa, Kavre, Bhaktapur, Lalitpur, Dolakha etc. are highly affected.
The Government has received assistance from National and International Organization but the proportion of relief material distributed is comparatively low.
тАЬWe have not been able to distribute enough relief materials, compared to what we have received in the Name of relief. The relief package announced for the affected people is very nominal, Although the Government has already decided to provide RS 40000 to each family that lost their members. Prime Minister Sushil Koirala Said the amount will be increased to RS 1 lakhs to each such family. The Government only decided to provide RS 5000 to each affected family for Food, as per the decision. Minister Rijal said that ┬атАЬWe are trying to review the relief package and he said Reconstruction work will be begin only after rescues and relief work achieve some progress тАШтАЩ. According to Minister Rijal тАЬwe have also instructed concerned authorities to protect archeological materials found from the demolished structuresтАЩтАЩ.
From my side I have heard that our country is getting Package from different countries of the world but, victim of earthquake are not getting relief. The victims wants 4 lakhs tent but our Government is unable to give 50 thousand tent for them. People were being homeless, familyless but our government is not doing anything for that. I want to request government to provide relief given by the national and international organization, countries etc.
