Nepal Floods: Mumbai-Based Mountaineer Among Missing; 80 Tourists From Maharashtra Stranded So Far

Mumbai: Mumbai-based mountaineer and medical practitioner Dr Milind P Chitlay, co-founder of Hills and Trails, is among those reported missing following devastating flash floods in Nepal, with his family, associates and members of the city's trekking community unable to establish contact with him.

Chitlay's close associates said they have so far received no confirmation about his safety. The communication network in several parts of Nepal has reportedly been disrupted following the floods, making it difficult to establish contact with people stranded in affected areas.
