Saptakoshi flood displaced, taking shelter by the side of Koshi River in Saptari, have complained that they are compelled to live under scarcity as the relief program has been largely focused on the displaced people of Sunsari. Around 30,000 people from flood hit VDCs, who fled to Saptari side, have been cut off from Sunsari as the flood water has deluged 4 km road section along the East-West Highway. Due to lack of food and clean water many people, especially children and women, have started to fall sick. Although Saptari local administration, along with other organizations have been assisting relief and refuge for these displaced, it is not sufficient for all. The tents provided by the local administration recently did not even house one- fourth of the population displaced. According to the Chief District Officer of Saptari, the flood victims on the Sunsari side are receiving relief materials from various national and international organizations as the media is focusing more on the flood displaced of Sunsari, forgetting those in Saptari. Meanwhile, over 12,000 flood hit Indian citizens arrived in Sunsari district on Monday in search for relief and shelter. It has been learnt that the flood affected people from the Indian side poured into in Nepal upon hearing that they will be provided with relief.
