The families of Jamuna Acharya and Narayan Prasad Sapkota were displaced when their house collapsed due to rain, said Rudra Bahadur KC, the ward president of Baglung Municipality-6.

"Due to landslides, two families have left their homes and taken shelter with their relatives, other houses are also at risk of collapsing, and hence we are shifting families to a safe place", KC said.
