A relief shipment from Sikkim finally reached Nuwakot after being held at the border for three days, Sikkimexpress reports.
Sikkimexpress confirmed that a consignment of relief supplies dispatched from the Indian state of Sikkim has now entered Nuwakot after a three‑day hold-up at the border. The delay was attributed to procedural checks, after which the convoy was cleared to proceed.
The relief package, intended to support communities affected by recent hardships, was transported by road and arrived in Nuwakot early on Wednesday. Local authorities in Nuwakot received the shipment and began distribution to the intended beneficiaries.
Officials from both sides of the border said the successful clearance underscores cooperation in humanitarian assistance, even as logistical challenges persist in the mountainous terrain.
The arrival marks the conclusion of a short but critical operation aimed at delivering essential items to those in need across the border.
Further updates will be provided as distribution progresses and additional aid is coordinated.
