The Kathmandu. Safe management has become the main challenge for the government since the bodies collected after the Bhotekoshi floods began to decompose. The government has asked for help from various countries, saying that a freezer with a capacity of at least 1,000 people and enough DNA test kits are needed to preserve the bodies.
Foreign Ministry Secretary Amrit Bahadur Rai said at a press conference on Sunday that freezers and DNA test kits are urgently needed for the management and identification of bodies.
