Engineer Ajay Prasad Singh was working at UT 216 MW Doosan Power House (Upper Trishuli I).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pooja has written an emotional message on social media, saying she still hopes for her husband&#8217;s life. However, the family is in utter agony for not getting information about him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Wherever you&#8217;re, please inform me. I come to you for your rescue. I want to hear from you. I want to see you again,&#8221; she wrote, addressing the missing husband, adding that even the little daughter is desperately waiting to hear your voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The little daughter has not been able to see you for long, Pooja stated. She further said she did not want anything except the safe return of her husband, urging the government, security agencies, local levels, and all others concerned. Pooja&#8217;s family demanded the related power company, district administration, security agencies, local levels, and the disaster management agency for the effective search of the missing ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She also pointed out the need for launching a search in various places such as Mailing Bazaar, Thadegaon, Ramche, Grang, Battar, Kalikasthan, Dhunche, Bhorle, Yarsa, and Mailungdanda. Even the jungle and hills in the vicinity could be searched with the mobilization of an additional team and drones, according to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve only one question- why the rescue has not gained pace,&#8221; she wondered and argued her husband might be waiting for help and rescue. The upset woman shared that she was undergoing mounting agony for her compulsion to visit one office to another to exert pressure for search and rescue efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senior Superintendent of Police at Madhes Police Office, Prabhu Prasad Dhakal, 38, among 220 persons hailing from Madhesh who went missing in the Bhoteskoshi floods, has come in contact following the disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two persons- one each from Saptari and Bara district- were found dead in the disaster, while the remaining others are still out of contact, Dhakal added. <strong>RSS<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Janakpurdham: It has been nearly two weeks since the devastating Bhotekoshi flood struck Nepal in Rasuwa district, but the whereabouts of an engineer working on a hydropower project in Rasuwa are still unknown.
