The Government of Nepal has called on the public to give money to two funds run from the Office of the Prime Minister and Council of Ministers, the Prime Minister Disaster Relief Fund and the Prime Minister Relief Fund, for those hit by the Bhotekoshi River flood in Rasuwa. The appeal appears on the websites of the Prime Minister's Office and of several ministries. According to the appeal, the flood came down the Bhotekoshi at 8:40 am on Wednesday, 10 Bhadau 2083, causing heavy loss of life and property. Riverside areas in Rasuwa, Nuwakot, Dhading, Gorkha and other districts were affected, and the government stepped up rescue, search and relief work in those areas. The notice says people displaced by the disaster need to be moved to safe places straight away and resettled over the long term, and that the collection of details on human and physical losses is continuing. The Prime Minister's Office adds that reducing and managing the risks from the disaster will require a large amount of money. Donors in Nepal and abroad are asked to use official channels. The Prime Minister's Office lists links through Nepal Clearing House Limited (NCHL) and Himalayan Bank for contributions from abroad, and says further options, including a QR code, are given in an attached document.

KMC halts waste collection as rain damages Bancharedanda landfill road

Waste collection and disposal in Kathmandu have been suspended after heavy rain sent muddy water flowing at the Bancharedanda landfill site and left the access road in poor condition. In a notice issued on Friday, 26 September 2026, Kathmandu Metropolitan City said the transport and disposal of waste had been halted and asked residents not to put out household waste for now, nor to dump it on roads, at junctions, in rivers, drains or open spaces. Pushkar Bhattarai, chief of the KMC Environment Management Division, said waste-carrying vehicles were stranded along the route after a landslide blocked the road. Bancharedanda, on the Nuwakot–Dhading border, is the Valley's main landfill. Sources: The Rising Nepal · AI-assisted summary by WeNepal

Landslide puts up to 25 houses and shops at risk in Gorkha bazaar

Continuous rain has left 22 to 25 houses and shops in Raisans bazaar, in ward 4 of Sahid Lakhan Rural Municipality in Gorkha, at risk from a landslide that has been moving for several days, Ratopati English reports. Ward chairman Yam Bahadur Thapa said no house had been swept away yet, but sinking ground and the continuing slide meant buildings could go at any time. Dhodeni, a nearby area, faces the same danger. Preparations are under way to shift affected residents to a community building, with tents being arranged as temporary shelter, and the local administration has urged people in the danger zone to move to safety.
