Birgunj metropolis and the surrounding areas have been in chaos for almost three weeks. Rain has stopped coming to Chapakal. As most of the residents of the city have connected the taps of the drinking water company so far, there is an extreme shortage of drinking water in many homes. The lack of water has affected the daily life of common people.
