Two Sisters Stuck In Nepal Flash Floods Found Safe In Pokhara; Anxious Wait Continues For Five MP Families | VIDEO

Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh: Two sisters from Anuppur, Palak and Pallavi Manji, were found safe in Pokhara after being caught in flash floods in Nepal. Their family had feared the worst, as the sisters lost contact with relatives for two days while on holiday. The sisters were rescued just in time, and their father spoke to them over the phone after being traced by authorities.

Meanwhile, five other families from Madhya Pradesh continued to anxiously await news about their missing loved ones. Among those unaccounted for is Toronto-based engineer Swati Bagrecha, who disappeared near the Nepal-Tibet border during a pilgrimage with the Isha Foundation. Her family has been left in constant worry, as her phone continues to ring without her answering.

Over 550 people have died in Nepal due to the floods, causing widespread devastation and separation of families.
