Last week Nepal was hit by a devastating thunderstorm that rampaged the nation and over thirty people lost their lives. In the wake of such hard-times India has once come forward to help the neighboring country. The Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson in a release said,
“We are deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life and damage to property in Nepal following the devastating thunderstorm that struck Bara and Parsa districts of Nepal. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who have lost their dear ones, sustained injuries or suffered damage to their property”.
India has pledged to help them and the Indian mission in Kathmandu and the consulate in Birjung are in touch with Nepalese authorities for any sort of help needed by them. In 2015 also when Nepal was struck by the earthquake India was the first country to send help and relief assistance and that too within 6 hours.
