Kathmandu. The massive flood in the Budhigandaki River on October 10 has caused major damage to Tripurasundari-2, Bishalnagar Syauli Bazaar in Dhading.
The floods have swept away houses, farms, livestock and household items, and damaged some houses uninhabitable. Residents have complained that even after almost a month of the floods, adequate attention has not been paid to the cleanliness of the affected areas, management of debris and rehabilitation of the victims.
{{TAG_OPEN_div_72} The flood has also destroyed the year-long hard work and source of income of the locals of Bishalnagar Syauli Bazaar. According to local Sur Shrestha, the flood has completely destroyed the paddy fields. He said that after the flood swept away the paddy fields that used to produce up to 50 muri of paddy, the basis for this year’s food collection has also been lost.
TAG_OPEN_div_70 According to him, after the rumor of flooding spread in the market, the locals reached the house and asked them to go to a safe place. After that, he and his wife left the house by putting their clothes in a bag. Recalling the moment when he went out to save his life by putting Rs 50,000 in his pocket that he had set aside for Dashain expenses, he said that the damage caused by the floods was unimaginable.
} “There was such a flood in 25 years as well. Even though the house was swept away at that time, it did not wash away all the paddy planted in the fields like now,” he said, “This time all the crops planted in the fields were destroyed.” ’
The pain of the locals who have become homeless due to the tragedy of the floods is still the same. According to local Raj Kumar Dahal, even after a long time since the floods, the necessary sanitation and rehabilitation work has not been done by the state in the affected settlements. The locals are also doing the work of removing the collapsed houses, piled up soil and garbage at their own expense and labor.
“Houses have been demolished by floods, roads have been blocked. We also have to work to remove the mud and debris piled up in and around the house,” he said, adding that no effective help has come from the state so far. Relief from various organizations has also been returned. ’
The flood victims, who lost their homes during Dashain, had taken shelter in the building of Chulidevi School. However, Dahal said that they had to face more problems due to lack of adequate accommodation and food arrangements there. According to him, the locals complained that the people’s representatives and concerned bodies did not reach to know the real situation of the flood-affected people and to inspect the damaged settlements.
} He accused the people’s representatives and other stakeholders of focusing only on the new bridge area damaged by the floods, but ignoring the destruction within the settlement. Locals are also trying to ease the movement of the damaged roads and roads by opening the road from house to house.
Even though the dozer came, it could not reach the settlement. We had to demolish the houses and open the road with the help of the locals,” he said, “We have suffered a lot of losses, but there is no one to listen to our pain and speak about it. Let the state understand our situation.”TAG_OPEN_div_56 ’
TAG_OPEN_div_54 Another painful story of the flood is Rammaya Ghale. The flood has piled up mud and mud inside her house, making it impossible to live in the house. Food, clothes and other belongings inside the house have been submerged. Livestock have also been affected by the floods. She said that even though she saved her life by freeing the goats, she could not get the belongings inside the house.
}’The house is filled with mud. There is no situation to live. Now we are worried about where to go, where to live,” she said, “There is no strength to throw the soil, there are small children. There are no people to help us.” ’
TAG_OPEN_div_49 The flood has not only affected the house and property but also the mental condition of the victims. Ghale said that due to the floods during Dashain, they have not been able to feel any festival time. The livelihood of the family has been further in danger after the pigs and other livestock reared inside the house were also damaged.
The families affected by the floods in Bishalnagar Syauli Bazaar have damaged their houses, farms, roads and local infrastructure, and are now without basic necessities. There is no situation to return home and there is no provision for safe housing and rehabilitation.
Locals have demanded the government and concerned bodies to immediately run relief, sanitation, housing and livelihood restoration programmes.TAG_OPEN_div_46
