The Indian Embassy has stepped in to provide urgent relief to flood-stricken Nepal, delivering the first consignment of emergency aid materials. The supplies, which weigh 4.2 tonnes, include essential items like sleeping bags, blankets, and tarpaulin sheets, have been handed over to local authorities.
This vital aid is a response to the recent devastating floods and landslides that have tragically resulted in more than 240 deaths across the Himalayan nation.
