Sindupalchowk -The deadly earthquake of last year had devastated Liping and Tatopani Bazaar of Sindhupalchowk. The flood in the Bhote Koshi River triggered by heavy rain across the border in China from last Tuesday night had wreaked havoc in Tatopani and Liping bazaars.  Before these places could recover, flood in the Bhote Koshi River has left these towns so battered that reconstruction seems impossible.  Of the 200 houses in Tatopani and Liping bazaars, the Bhote Koshi flood has washed away 67 houses till today noon, police said.  Nepali Army airlifted as many as 58 locals from Tatopani to Barhabishe yesterday. Some locals are taking shelter at a school in Kodari. As the flood has eroded Miteri Bridge, there is slim possibility of the trade point between China and Nepal at Tatopani coming into operation any time soon. Earlier, the flood in Bhote Koshi had damaged the Upper Bhote Koshi dam, inundated four industries, and swept away four vehicles. Similarly, one school, one Bailey bridge and one suspension bridge were swept away by the flood.
