KATHMANDU, June 17: With the increase in temperature throughout the country including the capital city Kathmandu, life has become difficult. Though a large number of people have no other option than trying to unwillingly become acclimatized to sweltering heat, some of them take to swimming as a way of taking respite from searing heat at least for few hours.
