They have provided services to the people around Melamchi who were damaged due to heavy rains, floods, and landslides last Tuesday.

Scouter Pandey said, I saw the road was all smashed by flood, the situation was terrific, everywhere there was panic due to traumatic situation. When local people saw our team for rescue and with relief material, I noticed a little hope in the faces of flood victims.

A team of Scouts was trained in Disaster Management rescued people trapped in the mud of the flood and safely evacuated belongings from 50 flood-affected houses.
