Sanumaya Bishwakarma, 65, and her husband Sarki Kami of Chankhu VDC-7, who sustained critical injuries from Tuesday's quake in the district were brought to the Capital city in the helicopter after the PM's directive.

The PM directed to take the couple to hospital in the Capital city after learning that the couple's treatment was not possible in Charikot District Hospital.

The couple was brought to the NA's Birendra Military Hospital at Chhauni from Dolakha in the NA's Super Puma helicopter.

As the helicopter was used for the quake survivors' rescue, the PM's schedule to return to the capital city from Chautara, the district headquarters of Sindhupalchowk district, was delayed. RSS
