India’s relief efforts captivates Nepal​

India, by being the first responder to the Jajarkot earthquake, has won many hearts in Nepal. Can Nepal, on its part, allow recruitment under the Agniveer scheme?

My neighbour in Ram Vihar, on seeing me all packed and cheerful over my holiday enquired where I was headed. “To escape Delhi’s smog, I am off to Nepal” I replied. “But Nepal is reverberating with earthquakes” he said, referring to two massive tremors (magnitude 6.3 and below) on 4 and 6 November in Jajarkot and Rukum West which demolished most of the kaccha homes and those that remained developed cracks. Earlier, on 3 October, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck

Nearby Bhajang even as Nepal has still not fully recovered from the 7.8 magnitude 2015 Gorkha earthquake centred in Barpak which destroyed many parts of Kathmandu valley. The 8.0 earthquake of 1934 is forgotten as there are few of that period living. The Gorkha earthquake caused 3800 fatalities affecting 31 of the 75 districts resulting in a loss of more than USD1 bn. Like in 2015, India’s response to the latest tragedy – as I write from Lameahal, Pokhara 250 km east of Jajarkot – is stellar and continuing. In 2015, the Indian Army and Air Force contribution was in the class worthy of a Nobel Peace Prize. Then Nepal Army Chief, Gen Gaurav Rana, publicly acknowledged the lead role played by the Indian Army.
