KATHMANDU – The Chandragiri Municipality-8 has been provided oxygen gas cylinders for an isolation ward coming into operation at the local Matatirtha Hospital from today.

According to ward chair Santosh Khadka, the assistance was made by philanthropist Uttam Karki. ” We have received 18 oxygen cylinders to be used for the isolation facility.”
