Dear fellows and colleagues,

This is an unfortunate sharing that Nepal is badly hit by a devastating
tremor (7.9 Richter Scale) that occurred on 25 April 2015 (Saturday). The
aftershock tremors are still going on. Another tremor hit the nation with
magnitude of 6.7 Richter scale on Mid-Day of 26th April. Since after the
first one, there were at least 70 plus aftershock tremors of magnitude 4.5
and more. There has been massive loss of lives and physical property. So
far, the death casualties have reached 4500 plus and the number of injured
is more than 6,000. This figure may go very high. The rescue and relief
operation are on full-swing mobilizing all possible means and resources.
The humanitarian assistance regarding the rescue operation and relief
package has started coming in from our immediate neighbors and friends all
around the world.
