Mechi-Mahakali Rescue Journey Update: 5 people rescued from Rupandehi under the protection of Manavsewa Ashram

Butwal - Five men enduring extreme neglect and desolation on the streets were successfully rescued from various locations in the Rupandehi district on Wednesday.

The operation is part of the ongoing Mechi-Mahakali Rescue Journey, a nationwide humanitarian campaign dedicated to clearing the streets of homelessness and vulnerability.

Dedicated Street Search Operations

On Wednesday morning, rescue teams deployed across major market areas, roadsides, and public spaces throughout the Rupandehi and Kapilvastu districts. Teams actively searched for individuals facing severe hunger, insecurity, and systemic neglect.

The five rescued individuals, who had been surviving on the streets for an extended period, were safely transferred to the Manavsewa Ashram branch in Butwal, Rupandehi, where they will receive immediate care, protection, and rehabilitation.

The Mission: "No One Left Behind"

Launched on April 10, the humanitarian campaign operates under a strict seasonal goal: "No one should have to sit on the roadside during this rainy season."

The initiative represents a joint collaborative effort between:

The national rescue journey is scheduled to run until June 4, 2026, moving systematically through various districts to promote human dignity and save lives.

Next Steps for the Rescue Team

The upcoming phase will continue to target roadsides and public areas to find and rehabilitate street-dependent individuals living in highly precarious conditions.
