One month after
deadly flash floods in
Nepal swept away Karishma Tamang's community in Rasuwa District, the pregnant 26-year-old is still struggling to find a safe place to call home. Karishma, who is expecting her second child, has been moving from place to place with her 4-year-old daughter since the
devastating floods swept through Nepal's Bhotekoshi-Trishuli river corridor near the
Chinese border at the end of August.
"Initially, we were kept in a covered hall at Bidur Municipality in Nuwakot District," she told DW, adding that hundreds of people shared the same shelter for days.
"Now we have shifted to a small makeshift family tent at the nearby Barahachaur area. Still, we can't sleep during rainy nights as it leaks when it rains." Her brother and his two children remain missing after the flood.
