A total of 23 pilgrims from Madhya Pradesh, who were stranded in Nepal due to severe floods and landslides, have begun their return journey home after coordination between the Indian and Nepalese governments. The pilgrims, who had traveled to visit the Pashupatinath temple, were trapped in the Kavre district but managed to reach Kathmandu and contacted the embassy for assistance. The Madhya Pradesh government organized their transport to the India-Nepal border, from where they will be taken back to their home districts of Jabalpur, Dindori, and Rewa. Chief Minister Mohan Yadav expressed satisfaction at the safe evacuation of the stranded individuals and thanked the Nepalese authorities for their cooperation.
