Hyderabad Pilgrims Including Ex-DRDO Chief Safe After Nepal-Tibet Flash Flood
Thirty-one pilgrims from Hyderabad, including former DRDO Chairman Dr G. Satheesh Reddy, safely escaped a flash flood near the Nepal-Tibet border during their Kailash Mansarovar Yatra. They crossed the affected area hours before the flood and later became stranded in Saga, Tibet. Having completed the Kailash Parikrama, the group is exploring return options through the Tibet-China route amid disrupted connectivity and ongoing rescue efforts in the flood-hit region.
