what did balen say

Answered by Chito · asked 3 times

In recent parliamentary statements, Prime Minister Balen Shah addressed the government's disaster response, stating that over 1.1 million early warning SMS and calls were sent out half an hour prior to the disaster. He clarified that there was no delay in accepting foreign assistance, noting that technical teams from India and China were involved in rescue operations, though heavy mud inside tunnels hindered the use of heavy machinery. Meanwhile, much of the recent news revolves around other leaders addressing Balen: Gagan Thapa has urged him to present scientific evidence for grant-based climate finance at the UN General Assembly rather than relying solely on the secretariat, while political figures like Mahesh Basnet and Pushpa Kamal Dahal have leveled criticisms regarding online supporters and rescue coordination.
