Nepal's president has reduced the waiting period to declare missing flood victims legally dead from 12 years to about 1.5 months. This change follows devastating floods triggered by a mountain and glacier collapse on August 26, which killed over 1,400 people and left more than 5,000 missing, including hundreds of foreigners. The ordinance was issued after a cabinet meeting, aiming to expedite disaster response and rehabilitation.
