Govt 'Frozen' in the Face of Forest Fires!
As Nepal grapples with an alarming increase in forest fires, with 379 incidents reported in 17 districts on a single day on April 19, it is evident that urgent action is needed to combat this pressing environmental crisis. The Department of Forests and Soil Conservation has declared this year's numbers to be the highest on record, with forest fires becoming more frequent and widespread due to factors such as rising temperatures, unfavorable weather conditions, presence of flammable materials in forests, and territorial difficulties.
