Operation Maitri in full swing in Nepal

Stepping up its relief and rescue operations in earthquake-hit Nepal, the Indian Air Force on Monday sent 12 aircraft carrying relief material. And widening “Operation Maitri”, the Army has moved its rescue mission outside Kathmandu to the quake’s epicentre at Barpak village in Gorkha district, after its engineers managed to open up the road to the Nepal capital from India.
