Nepal Police conducted rescue operations in the Sarlahi and Parsa districts where heavy rainfall caused severe flooding, leaving several areas submerged. Footage shared by Nepal Police on Monday, Oct. 6, showed officers wading through chest-deep waters while assisting residents trapped by the floods. Continuous rainfall since Friday has disrupted daily life in much of Nepal, leading to landslides and floods that have blocked highways and roads. A three-day ban on vehicular movement into and out of the Kathmandu Valley was announced on Saturday. Meanwhile, in neighboring India’s West Bengal state, officials said heavy rains wreaked havoc in the region, killing at least seven people. Abhishek Ray, a senior police official in the state’s Darjeeling district, told reporters that seven bodies have been recovered following the heavy rainfall, which triggered landslides. Indian parliamentarian from Darjeeling Raju Bista said on the US social media company X that massive damage was caused due to the heavy rainfall.
