DR-2025-000125-NPL Drought,Nepal: Madhesh Province (Province-2), which consists of eight districts, has been facing a severe water crisis that has severely impacted the lives and livelihoods of over 1,220,000 people due to a lack of adequate rainfall in the province. This comes despite forecasts from the Department of Hydrology and Meteorology predicting above-average rainfall and warmer temperatures across the country this year.

Furthermore, it is increasing the risk of waterborne and vector-borne disease outbreaks in the affected communities.
