The old Jaigarh market of Achham was destroyed when the fire broke out from the IME center operated by businessman Pushparaj Sharma at around 7 pm on 26th Chait. 23 houses and 35 shops in Jaigarh Bazar, which is also the center of Bannigarhi Jaigarh Rural Municipality, were completely burnt down. A lot of people got up.

After the incident, provincial government ministers, leaders of political parties, people's representatives conducted on-site monitoring. Various local levels also announced relief funds for the victims. But the fire victims of Jaigarh have not been able to feel relief.

According to Tek Bahadur Saud, chairman of the rural municipality, the Jaigarh fire on the 26th of Chait, apart from the physical infrastructure, caused a loss of property worth around 80 million.

Nirmala Rawal, who stopped Jaigarh Bazar from burning by letting a dozer destroy her house, is staying in her relative's room with help. He has been homeless for 14 days since Saturday. But she is yet to feel relief.

'Suddenly, after a fire broke out, someone kept saying that the fire cannot be stopped by demolishing the burning house. If someone gets burnt by fire, it's a different matter, why do you have to destroy the house," Nirmala said, remembering the day of the fire, "By that time, the fire had reached my house. Even though my house was burnt to ashes, I let the house be demolished by using a dozer to save other people's houses. If he hadn't done that, maybe there would have been nothing left of Jaigarh's name.

His house is also the first concrete house built in Jaigarh. Nirmala has become homeless after a house, utensils, food, jewelery were all burnt to ashes. Her husband died of a heart attack 10 years ago. She is working as an office assistant in the village and is teaching her children. She has recovered after losing everything.

"In the name of relief, the village council gave only one blanket, oil, 25 kg of rice, one bucket," she said, "The house has been burnt to ashes." There is no place to keep the goods given as relief. There is street food. What is needed now is a place to hide the head.'' She said that when the fire broke out, everyone came and only gave assurances. One leader after another minister came to meet. But so far no relief has come," she said.

The family of businessman Khagendra Saud, who lost everything in the Jaigarh market fire, has also become homeless. According to the information collected by the local level, the police and others, it is estimated that the loss of Saud alone is worth 1 million. Saud's house, godown, shop, known as the main merchant of Jaigarh, were all burnt down.

Now Saud's family has been living in a room of the health center provided by the rural municipality for 14 days. Gas stove, 25 kg of rice, oil, blankets have been given by the municipality. I have not received anything other than that," Saud said. "Me, my son and wife are staying in the Health Chowki building. There is also a problem with eating and living. Many people came for two or three days after the fire, but now no one cares. Not even relieved. In this way, how long you have to sit, even when you remember, it is agonizing.

It was decided to provide five million rupees from the Sudurpaschim province government for immediate relief to the victims of the fire. The Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Control Council meeting held at the office of the Chief Minister and the Council of Ministers decided to provide immediate assistance of 50 lakhs to Bannigarhi Jaigarh Rural Municipality for the fire victims of Achham.

Bannigadhi Jaigarh Rural Municipality said that the relief amount that was supposed to be given to the victims has not yet been received by the rural municipality. About 400,000 cash assistance has been received so far from various individuals and organizations. The money that the state government has promised to give has not arrived. The central government has not shown any interest so far," President Saud said. "We have provided food relief to the victims for the time being. It is also advised to make a temporary tin roof for living. A concrete decision has not been made on what to do in the long term.
