"Finally found Ram in Nepal. He's under treatment in Kathmandu. But safe. Thank you all for spreading the word". This was what we read from Anubhav Sinha tweet today. And finally all of us at the situation room took a breathe of relief.

Since then we were active on our social media and phone gathering and disseminating information about the earthquake victims to the rescue teams, government officials and facilitating as well.

consistently in contact with Anubhav Sinha and his colleagues. Later we got to know that, Anubhav Sinha is well-known movie director from Bollywood. He had gives us phone number of Ram Tamang and his wife to make the rescue operation easy.

                 We were sharing the missing reports of all the people that reported with, through different resources like social media, Blogs, etc. We called the emergency numbers provided by the government to report about missing couple. We even reached out to Nepal police twitter, informed them about Ram Tamang and provided his numbers. Nepal Police later informed us that one of the number we provided was located nearby Nuwakot Durbar but they were still to provide his proper details. During all this, we were constantly in contact with Mr. Sinha and Nepal Police as well. 

        Even yesterday, we asked Nepal Police about his details but they were finding difficulties to find him. His numbers were still switched off. But today, we got read Mr. Sinha's tweet about find Ram Tamang. Soon we called on his number to get the proper details. Thuli Maya, his wife picked-up the call and further said,"We are fine. Nepal Army rescued us some days back. Ram is injured and admitted at Civil Hospital of Kathmandu. He has suffered through hand fracture and vertebral compression fracture as well." She further said,"I am admitted to KMC Hospital of Kathmandu. My hand and ribs bone is fractured. We both are operated". We later informed Nepal Police about the couple.

     Though they are admitted at hospital and have suffered a lot but the good news is that they are alive. We must be grateful to Nepal Army and Nepal Police for their rescue operation. And special credit must be given to Anubhav Sinha.
