Our correspondents confirmed that the fire, which broke out in Goldhap, one of seven refugee camps, in Eastern Nepal early today morning at around 7.30 am is spreading around causing a huge loss.
According to our Jhapa correspondent, around 600 huts have already turned to ashes until the filing of this report and it is assumed that the possibility of rescuing any huts is less likely despite the continuous efforts of fire brigadiers, refugees, locals, armed police forces, among others to bring under their control.
The reason behind the fire break-out including the human casualty aftermath of the inferno, however, is yet to be confirmed. An estimated 4000 Bhutanese refugees live in Goldhap camp.
Details to follow.
