The Indian government donated 81 school buses to various educational institutions across different districts in Nepal that were affected by floods.

In a statement, the Indian Embassy in Nepal wrote on X: "The Government of India donated 81 school buses to various educational institutions located in 48 districts, including flood-affected Ilam, Jhapa, and Udayapur districts of Koshi Province as well as far-off districts such as Humla, Mustang, Sankhuwasabha, Darchula, Baitadi, and Achham, across all seven provinces of Nepal, in keeping with the long-standing development partnership and friendship between India and Nepal."

The Embassy said that over the past three decades, India has donated 383 buses to various educational institutes located across the country.

Indian PM Narendra Modi had condoled the loss of lives in the recent rains in Nepal.

On October 5, Modi had written on X, " The loss of lives and damage caused by heavy rains in Nepal is distressing. We stand with the people and Government of Nepal in this difficult time. As a friendly neighbour and first responder, India remains committed to providing any assistance that may be required."
