The fire damaged four to five houses. Helicopters from the Beas Municipality as well as the fire brigade from Pokhara and Minister for Labor, Employment and Social Security Krishna Kumar Shrestha himself assisted in extinguishing the fire.

The Home Ministry had written a letter to Simrik Air asking for its help. After that, the helicopter went to Damauli from Kathmandu.
It was difficult for the fire brigade to reach the place where the fire broke out as the road was narrow. Efforts are being made to extinguish the fire from both the fire brigade and the helicopter.
