Six Indian Tourists Stranded by Snowfall in Nepal's Shey-Phoksundo Lake Rescued Safely
Six Indian tourists, including two women, were stranded near Nepal's Shey-Phoksundo Lake after heavy snowfall disrupted their trek in the Dolpa district. Despite warnings from security personnel and their Nepali guide, the group proceeded into the snow-covered area and lost communication. Rescue efforts faced delays due to bad weather and a technical issue with a Nepali Army helicopter. The tourists were safely rescued by a private helicopter on Monday and are receiving treatment at a local hospital, with their condition reported as stable.
