It hss been a year since a devastating earthquake in Nepal killed nearly
9,000 people, but the rebuilding process has hardly begun.Billions of
dollars pledged by donors still have not been spent.However, some
non-government organisations are taking it upon themselves to rebuild
schools. Al Jazeera's Subina Shrestha reports from Sindhupalchowk
district, east of the capital Kathmandu.
Government officials, diplomats and ordinary people gathered at the
remains of a fallen iconic tower in the Nepalese capital on Sunday to
mark the anniversary of a devastating earthquake that killed thousands
and injured many more in the Himalayan nation.
Prime Minister Khadga Prasad Oli laid a wreath at the ruins of the
Dharahara tower in the heart of Kathmandu. The structure collapsed on
April 25 last year, killing 132 people.
