Families in Nuwakot and Rasuwa performed symbolic cremations for missing flood victims. Relatives used kusha grass effigies when bodies could not be recovered. Searches for missing kin proved unsuccessful across various locations. Priests guided families through traditional rituals for liberating souls. Over one hundred effigies were cremated in Kathmandu’s Pashupati Aryaghat.
