Four of the 7 people injured in the accident of the force vehicle going from Jumla to Surkhet are in serious condition. The injured who were rescued from Kalikot Chowkhola of Surkhet-Jumla road section of Karnali Highway and brought to District Hospital Manm were referred to Surkhet for further treatment.
But due to the lack of helicopters, donations for further treatment could not be made, said the Information Officer of the Health Service Office, Calicut, Cuttack Mahat.
Among the injured, one woman and three men are in critical condition. It is said that the bleeding of two people has not stopped and there is a problem in their treatment. Due to the lack of helicopters, there is a problem to take them to Surkhet and initiatives are being taken for that.
Due to bad weather, a helicopter is stuck in Badimalika area and there is a problem because it is not clear who will arrange the rent of the helicopter to take the patient. Kalikot chief district officer Narayan Prasad Bhattarai said, 'The helicopter is being searched for. Talks are going on with Surkhet and Kathmandu. The helicopter will come when the weather is favorable.'
On Friday morning, Karnali Pradesh Force vehicle number 02-001 B 0976, coming from Jumla towards Surkhet, fell near the junction of the Karnali highway and fell into the bank of Teela river. According to the police, the vehicle was overspeeding. Although the vehicle fell into the riverbed about 100 meters below the road, passengers from other vehicles and locals rescued the injured and took the injured to the hospital.

Suman, the 5-year-old son of the Pariyar couple, is in normal condition.
Likewise, the condition of 16-year-old Abigail Periyar of Hima-2 and Prakash Shahi, co-driver of Kalikot Shubhakalika-2, is normal.
Baliraj Budha, a passenger of another vehicle going from Jumla to Surkhet, said that they managed to rescue those who were in the accident from the bank of the river. He said, 'We were in the last car when the car fell. We immediately reached the bank of Teela river and pulled the passenger out of the car using a rope.'
The district hospital said that the bleeding of injured Prakash Shahi and Ravin Pariyar could not be stopped.
