Nepal Foreign Minister Clarifies Compensation Claim Regarding India
Nepal's Foreign Minister Shisir Khanal has clarified that his country has not formally requested financial compensation from India for damages related to recent flash floods. Khanal stated that any previous remarks about compensation were in the context of climate change impacts on Nepal and not a specific demand directed at New Delhi. This clarification follows earlier statements where the minister had alluded to seeking climate-related compensation from major greenhouse gas emitters. The Indian Air Force has been involved in transporting relief materials to flood-affected areas in Nepal.
