A woman in Kailali’s Mohanyal Rural Municipality-7, Kuine, was injured in a tiger attack. The tiger attacked 40-year-old Saraswati BK while she was sleeping in a shed.
According to Mohanyal Rural Municipality Chairperson Devidatta Upadhyay, the incident happened around 10:30 PM on Sunday. Saraswati sustained injuries to her head and face during the attack. The tiger fled after villagers created a commotion.
Saraswati was taken to Lamki for treatment, and her condition is reported to be stable.
Despite efforts to declare areas free of such sheds, the practice of staying in them during menstruation continues in many parts of Kailali.
