Mahottari The life here, which is normal when the sun shines throughout December, has been affected by the increasing winter since the beginning of December. With the onset of drought, the poor slums have been more affected by the sudden increase in cold. With the onset of rain in the southern region of the district, the poor slums have become more vulnerable as cold winds have started to blow from morning to mid-day.

"On the other hand, since last Wednesday, it has been covered with heavy rain till mid-day, the continuous cold wind has not made it possible to go to work", says Israful Rain, a 30-year-old youth from Matihani 8 in the far southeast part of the district, "It has improved his livelihood."

In the southern part of the district, the pressure has increased, but in the far northern part, it has increased since last Friday. Bardiwas, Gaushala, Aurhi and Bhangaha municipality areas were drenched in sunshine until last Thursday. "The weather was good till Thursday, but suddenly on Friday, the dam was covered with cold, since then the winter has increased a lot", says 70-year-old Lakshmi Prasad Kushwaha of Gaushala-10 Batauwa settlement. He says that even though the heat is breaking after midday, the sun is not shining and the cold wind is blowing throughout the day.
