Sikkim’s Pema Lhamu Sherpa Gives One Month’s Salary to Nepal Flood Relief

Pema Lhamu Sherpa, a resident of Sikkim, announced that he will donate the equivalent of one month’s salary to aid the ongoing flood relief operations in Nepal. The contribution comes as Nepal grapples with severe flooding that has displaced thousands and caused extensive damage to homes and infrastructure.

Sherpa’s gesture reflects growing cross‑border solidarity, with many individuals and organisations in India stepping forward to assist Nepal during the crisis. While the exact amount has not been disclosed, the donation is intended to support emergency shelters, food distribution and medical assistance for affected families.

Local authorities in Nepal have welcomed the support, emphasizing the importance of international aid in accelerating recovery. Sherpa’s donation adds to a broader wave of humanitarian assistance arriving from neighboring countries.
