: With a sad face, Sujata Bohora was sitting near the offices of airline companies, which were crowded with people, around Simkot Airport. She was fed up as it was the seventh day she had come in search of an air ticket to fly back to Kathmandu from Humla, a district not connected with the national road network. Bohora, who studies in grade 12 in Kathmandu, had come to her hometown to celebrate the festivals of Dashain and Tihar. However, she has not been able to grab an air ticket to Kathmandu. “My classes have already resumed. Meanwhile, I am here struggling for an air ticket. I feel I made a mistake coming back home,” said Bohora. Likewise, Man Bahadur Bohora said that he has already missed five days of his college waiting for a ticket. Man Bahadur said he studied engineering in Pokhara.
