Re: 2015 Earthquake in Nepal.
Dear Sir/Madam:
Warm Greetings From Nepal Fencing Association.
We would like to inform you that on April 25 a massive earthquake in the 7.9 in the Richter
scale rocked Nepal and was followed by over 200 aftershocks. The devastating earthquake
which first struck at 11:55 am on Saturday ruined numerous houses, temples, historical building
and monuments, including UNESCO heritage site. Till date around more than 8,500 people lost
their lives, more than 15,000 people are injured and millions people were homeless.
In the meantime, we have lost some of our sports infrastructures, such as only two
International Standard Swimming Pools and only international Covered Hall are
completely useless.
The following administrative districts of Nepal have been badly affected by the terrible
earthquake:
a) Kathmandu
b) Bhaktapur
c) Lalitpur
d) Kavre
e) Dhading
f)
Sindhupalchok
