Kirtipur Holding Center Flooded, Displacing Families

Kathmandu. The families dependent on the Kirtipur holding center, where Kathmandu's landless people were relocated, are in distress after floods entered the center. The dependent families are in distress due to the flood that entered around 12:40 AM. The government's commitment to permanent management within 15 days has not been fulfilled even after three months, and victims have expressed anger over being kept in an unsafe location. Children, the elderly, and the sick have been put at further risk due to the sudden flood. With the flood entering the holding center, efforts are underway to remove belongings, and preparations are being made to take the landless to the Kharipati holding center.
