一 |     Kathmandu, Oct 12 (UNI) At least 33 people have died in floods and landslides across western Nepal in the past week, local media reports say.
The worst of the monsoon rains hit Karnali province in the north-west, where thousands of residents were evacuated, officials said.
Nepal is nearing the end of its monsoon season, which typically begins in June and ends in October.
At least 110 people have died this year in rain-related disasters, according to the National Emergency Operation Centre.
Hundreds of homes have been damaged in the avalanches and flooding. At least 22 people are still missing across the province and scores more have been injured, the BBC reported.
Rescuers have described difficulties in getting to the mountainous region amid continued rain.
'We have mobilised police officers on the ground. We have arranged a helicopter for air rescue from Surkhet," said one police spokesman, quoted by the Annapurna Post.
"However, unfortunately, due to the weather not improving, progress is not being made as expected."
Most reports of missing people came from the low-lying Kalikot district. Thousands were evacuated from their homes there in the past week amid warnings of intense rain.
In some areas of the province, the Karnali river had risen to over 39ft , Nepal's emergency authorities said.
Several suspension bridges over the river had also been washed away, local media reported.
Government officials have dispatched aid to the region on helicopters.
The UN's humanitarian agencies said they were distributing food and medicine to the worst affected communities in western Nepal.
UNI ING。    After serving more than a month of in-school suspension over his dreadlocks, a Black student in Texas was told he will be removed from his high school and sent to a disciplinary alternative education program on Thursday.Darryl George, 18, is a junior at Barbers Hill High School in Mont Belvieu and has been suspended since Aug. 31. He will be sent to EPIC, an alternative school program, from Oct. 12 through Nov. 29 for “failure to comply” with multiple campus and classroom regulations, the principal said in a Wednesday letter provided to The Associated Press by the family.Principal Lance Murphy wrote that George has repeatedly violated the district's “previously communicated standards of student conduct." The letter also says that George will be allowed to return to regular classroom instruction on Nov. 30 but will not be allowed to return to his high school's campus until then unless he's there to discuss his conduct with school administrators.Barbers Hill Independent School District prohibits male students from having hair extending below the eyebrows, ear lobes or top of a T-shirt collar, according to the student handbook. Additionally, hair on all students must be clean, well-groomed, geometrical and not an unnatural color or variation. The school does not require uniforms.George's mother, Darresha George, and the family's attorney deny the teenager's hairstyle violates the dress code. The family last month filed a formal complaint with the Texas Education Agency and a federal civil rights lawsuit against the state’s governor and attorney general, alleging they failed to enforce a new law outlawing discrimination based on hairstyles. The family alleges George's suspension and subsequent discipline violate the state’s CROWN Act, which took effect Sept. 1. The law, an acronym for “Create a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair,” is intended to prohibit race-based hair discrimination and bars employers and schools from penalizing people because of hair texture or protective hairstyles including Afros, braids, dreadlocks, twists or Bantu knots. A federal version passed in the U.S. House last year, but was not successful in the Senate.The school district also filed a lawsuit in state district court asking a judge to clarify whether its dress code restrictions limiting student hair length for boys violates the CROWN Act. The lawsuit was filed in Chambers County, east of Houston.George’s school previously clashed with two other Black male students over the dress code. Barbers Hill officials told cousins De’Andre Arnold and Kaden Bradford they had to cut their dreadlocks in 2020. Their families sued the district in May 2020, and a federal judge later ruled the district’s hair policy was discriminatory. Their pending case helped spur Texas lawmakers to approve the state’s CROWN Act. Both students withdrew from the school, with Bradford returning after the judge’s ruling. ___AP journalist Juan Lozano contributed to this report from Houston.___The Associated Press education team receives support from the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
