Families from Tamil Nadu are anxiously waiting for information about relatives who remain stranded as floods continue to devastate parts of Nepal.
Heavy monsoon rains have triggered widespread flooding across several districts of Nepal, cutting off roads and isolating communities. The deluge has hampered transport links, leaving many residents and visitors unable to move freely.
Among those caught in the crisis are a number of Indian nationals from Tamil Nadu who were in Nepal for work or travel. Their whereabouts remain uncertain as rescue teams focus on evacuating flood‑hit areas.
Back in Tamil Nadu, families have been reaching out to the Indian embassy, local authorities and relief agencies, seeking any update on the stranded relatives. They report heightened anxiety as days pass without concrete information.
Officials have asked the public to remain patient, emphasizing that rescue and relief operations are ongoing. They assure that any verified details about the missing individuals will be promptly communicated to the concerned families.
