At least 175 people have died and thousands have fled their homes as monsoon floods swept across Nepal, India and Bangladesh.
Three days of relentless downpours sparked flash floods and landslides that have killed at least 80 people in Nepal, 73 across northern and eastern India and 22 in Bangladesh.
Al Jazeera's Subina Shreshtha, reporting from Janakpur in Nepal, said that at least six million people were affected by the floods in the country's southern plains known as Terai.
More than 48,000 homes have been submerged by rising waters in Nepal, the police said.
