Kangpokpi, June 15 2017:
The torrential downpour in the last few days flooded and damaged five houses in Kanglatongbi, Mandir.
19 people belonging to five houses have evacuated their houses for the temporary relief camp set up at community hall, Kanglatongbi.
AMGSU president LB Adhikari said that the residential houses are in danger as Dangdunge river has crossed the danger mark.
He further stated that the retaining wall blocking the water from the river was swept away by the strong current of water.
Expressing disappointment, LB Adhikari stated that the State Government has not provided any assistance or relief measures for the victims and appealed the authority concerned to look into the matter at the earliest.
Pradhan of Kanglatongbi Gram Panchayat Shiva Kumar Basnet sought the attention of the authority concerned.
