132 flood displaced students enrolled at school

One hundred thirty two students displaced by the recent Bhotekoshi flood have been enrolled at a school in Kathmandu. 

Acting Mayor of Kathmandu Metropolitan City, Sunita Dangol, shared that 132 students who are sheltering in Kathmandu after being displaced by Bhotekoshi flood have started going to the Gitamata School, Dallu.

Similarly, LRI School has been providing transportation service to such students for pick up and drop facility from shelter.   

School Principal Hari Krishna Shrestha shared that efforts are being made to bring them to normalcy gradually through counseling.
