After deadly Nepal floods, Sadhguru bats for 5-nation board to deal with disasters

Following deadly flash floods in Nepal and Tibet that killed over 900 people, spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev has proposed the creation of a five-nation Himalayan Board comprising India, China, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bhutan to improve disaster coordination in the region. At a solidarity event in Kathmandu, Sadhguru emphasized the need for cross-border collaboration to treat the Himalayas as a unified ecological system rather than isolated national territories. He also pledged financial support to Nepal’s disaster relief efforts and criticized attributing the floods to mystical causes, calling for a focus on tangible solutions. Additionally, Sadhguru mentioned that 77 pilgrims from his organization’s Kailash pilgrimage group remain missing after the floods struck near the Tibet-Nepal border. Despite initial optimism that the group had safely reached an immigration center, their current location remains unknown, leaving their families in distress.
