The distribution of the relief materials was mainly targeted for socially excluded families from Dalits, Tamang and Chepang communities. Mainly women members came to collect these materials as their male members are migrated for labour work.

The recipients found from 8 years child to 86 years old lady including some people physically affected.

One of the recipients said she has even no place to keep those material due to destruction of her house and no one really takes care her in the family as well. Some people staying in mourning according to the Hindu culture and some others found severely wounded come themselves to collect materials.
