As the risk of landslide and flooding is not over yet, Helambu Rural Municipality in Sindhupalchowk has called upon the locals to stay alert.
Issuing a notice this evening, the local level said that the flash flood in the Melamchi River on June 15 was the result of a landslide at Bhemadhang ground below the Mt Semesidang.
