Cold wave affects life in Nawalparasi

Nawalparasi,  The increasing cold has affected the normal life of the people in the bordering areas to the south of the western part of Nawalparasi district since the last few days. 
The cold wave accompanying the fog has further exacerbated the cold condition. The impoverished section of society and low-income working class people have been affected the most by the cold wave. These families are compelled to burn campfire to ward off the biting cold. Farmers have not been able to work their fields due to the cold as told by one local Chhote Khan. 
The older people and children are the most vulnerable to the cold. The attendance of children in schools in the area has also decreased with the increasing cold. 
The cold has affected the vegetable cultivation. The potato and tomato they have grown has suffered from blight.
