MAHOTTARI, April 22: With their worries getting deeper in the face of prolonged drought-like situation, local residents of northern Mahottari district have started praying for rains.



So far there has been no rainfall since winter season. [break]



As a result of this, land has become dry and unfit for cultivation. Locals have not been able to sow summer crops.



Locals have been offering prayers for Mahadev at Kishanagar, Pashupatinagar, Bhangaha and Bardibas.



They are singing and dancing especially in evening to appease the rain God. “Hara hara Mahadev. Please bring in the rain.”



Elders have also joined the singing and dancing programme launched by youths to pray for rains.
