CPN (Maoist Center) Chair and former Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal has drawn the attention of the government to arrange a  safe settlement for the people of Tilgaun in Namkha Rural Municipality-6, Humla, who are at risk of landslides.

Taking to social media, main opposition party leader Dahal said, "I want to draw the government's serious attention to ensuring immediate rescue and safe settlement for the residents of the risk areas.”

Leader Dahal urged the government to focus not only in capital-centric discussion regarding the rising risks of glacial lake outburst due to the increasing impact of climate change but also to pay attention to carrying out scientific studies and disaster preparedness works in remote areas of the country.

He said, "The occurrence of mudslides due to the glacial lake outburst has put the settlement there at risk. The water supply infrastructure, roads, and bridges have been damaged due to the landslides, and the fact that 33 local people are awaiting relief."
