SURKHET: Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Defense, Purna Bahadur Khadka has lauded the Nepal Army for its contributions to the search, rescue, relief distribution, and rehabilitation of Jajarkot and Rukum (West) earthquake survivors.

Inspecting the NA’s North-Western Division Headquarters, Surkhet, he highly appreciated the contributions and professional efficiency of the Army and thanked the NA for the same on his and the government’s behalf, his secretariat said.
