Summary

This study report prepared by NDRC is an approach paper that discusses about the issues, ways to mitigate accidents, policy improvement, and roles of various stakeholders to mitigate lightning risk and PaL in Nepal. In order to mitigate the hazardous impact of lightning a multi-sectoral and multi-dimensional approach is required.

Similarly, house fire caused by electrical faults is increasingly becoming another potential hazard. As, both the above threats can be addressed simultaneously, this approach paper provides a general roadmap for the concerned sectors to take necessary steps towards mitigating the threats.
