20 Rescued on Day 18 of Mechi-Mahakali Journey | A Republic Day Miracle in Nepal Pokhara   

HUMANITY SERVED: 20 Homeless Citizens Rescued in Pokhara on Nepal’s Republic Day 

POKHARA, NEPAL — Proving that the true spirit of a republic lies in serving its most vulnerable, the Mechi-Mahakali National Rescue Journey successfully rescued 20 street-dependent individuals on Nepal's 19th Republic Day.  

Organized jointly by Manavsewa Ashram and the Ani Choying Drolma Foundation, this compassionate mission reached its 18th day on Friday, bringing the total number of rescued individuals across Nepal to 152. 

The rescue operations focused heavily on Pokhara, Damauli, and surrounding areas to ensure no helpless citizens are left to brave the upcoming monsoon rains on the streets. Among those rescued was a woman in critical condition who had lost lower-body mobility after a car accident.  

Abandoned at Gandaki Provincial Hospital for 14 days with no family to care for her, she has now been moved into safe custody. All 20 individuals receive safe shelter, medical treatment, and a family environment at Manavsewa Ashram Hemja 

Following their work in Pokhara, the Mechi-Mahakali National Journey team departed for Nuwakot on Saturday morning. 

Key Operations & Rescue Stories: 

  • Latest Milestone: The nationwide campaign rescued 20 vulnerable individuals on Friday in Pokhara, bringing the total number of rescues to 152 by Day 18. 
  • Shelter & Care: All 20 individuals were taken into safe custody and are now under the protection of Manavsewa Ashram in Hemja. 
  • Critical Intervention: The team successfully rescued an abandoned woman at Gandaki Provincial Hospital who had lost mobility below the waist following a car accident, providing her with the care she lacked. 
  • The Journey Continues: Following sweep operations in Pokhara and Damauli, the 47-member rescue team departed via Muglin for their next destination: Nuwakot. 

Campaign Overview 
 
Organized by Manavsewa Ashram and the Ani Choing Drolma Foundation, the Mechi-Mahakali National Rescue Journey is on a mission to provide dignified lives, safe shelter, and medical treatment to homeless, mentally challenged, and physically vulnerable individuals across Nepal. 

This campaign is part of a larger, visionary goal to make Nepal entirely free of street-dependent humans by the Nepali year (2082/2083). 

"Political milestones are meaningful only when society's weakest citizens are granted the right to a dignified life."
