‘She’s gone’: Man recounts horror of watching wife get buried in Nepal flood mud
The Nepal floods killed over 160 people and hundreds, including 133 Indians, are still missing.
Keshav Prasad Baral, a 68-year-old survivor from Nepal's Rasuwa district, recounts the traumatic experience of witnessing his wife buried alive in the catastrophic flash floods. The horrific event occurred when a massive wall of mud swept through their home, trapping Baral's wife under the debris. Speaking from his hospital bed, Baral expressed his despair, saying, "My wife is still somewhere beneath the mud.
She's gone." The disaster was triggered by a magnitude 5.2 glacial collapse, which sent debris downstream and triggered deadly flooding. Prime Minister Balendra Shah assured the affected families that the state would provide all its means and resources to support them through this difficult time.
