Emergency Response to Bhotsipa, Sindhpalchok District


       Bhotsipa is a village in Sindhupalchok District in Bagmati zone of the central Nepal. Like most of the other areas in Nepal, this district is also listed as an under developed area.It may be noted that Sindhupalchok was worst hit by 7.9 magnitude earthquake that jolted the country on April 25, 2015. Almost 80% of the houses were destroyed where most of the  people lost their lives. Steep mountains and Narrow roads in Bhotsipa have drastically slowed rescue efforts.
