India to provide USD 75 million to Nepal for reconstruction efforts in earthquake-hit areas: EAM Jaishankar
Friday, 5 January 2024 India will extend a financial package of USD 75 million for the reconstruction of infrastructure in Nepal's western district affected by last year's quake, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Friday. Jaishankar's remarks came as he jointly inaugurated with his Nepalese counterpart N P Saud the Tribhuvan University Central Library and other reconstruction projects undertaken in Kathmandu after the 2015 earthquake in Nepal. Jaishankar arrived in Nepal on Thursday on his first visit to a foreign country in 2024.
In the history of Nepal's aviation, tragedy has etched a profound mark, resonating far beyond its borders. Over the span of fifty years, five catastrophic plane crashes have punctuated the nation's skies, each leaving an indelible scar on its collective consciousness. The deadliest among them unfolded on a fateful day in 1992 when Pakistan International Airlines Flight 268 tragically crashed while approaching Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport. All 167 souls on board were lost in an instant, marking it as the country's worst aviation disaster to date.
