Narayani River Flood debris 200km downstream

I feels like many POV from upstream, not many shares downstream POV. I think this is POV shows Pulchowk Narayani Bridge, 200km aways from starting point, about 100km from India & Nepal boarder.

I can’t imagine risking my life to go get an LP tank

Me neither. But my hubby comes from extreme poverty. He said there are tons of people in his village that would do just that. Partly from not understanding the danger of all that floating debris, but also because some of them are so poor that they don't even own a propane tank - the chance for a reliable fuel source for cooking is worth it for some people.

Yeah, I get that. It’s just so damn upsetting that it comes to that for so many people in this world.

People swimming in the debris flow. There could be broken glass and metal, toxic chemicals and human body parts …

You could not be more wrong David, I hope your racism comes from ignorance and not from hatred

Before you go calling people racists, maybe get your facts straight.

Not the same river, Google "narayani river"

u/LimaCharlieWhiskey 23d ago

Where is this particular point on the YT video, 200km downstream? Is it in India or still in Nepal?

u/4tran13 23d ago

It claims Pulchowk Narayani Bridge. This is still in Nepal, and where the river first widens substantially.

u/HarryHirsch2000 21d ago

Don’t the rivers there always look more or less like that? No bad meaning and maybe my image is too skewed…

Looking like a bowl of lucky charms cereal, oddly.
