Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has ordered the tourism department to extend necessary help to 25 tourists from the state who are stranded in Kathmandu.
The tourism department has been asked to make arrangements to locate and bring them back, an official release here said.
Though tremors were felt in some parts of neighbouring Andhra Pradesh, the state itself felt no tremors after a massive earthquake hit Nepal and north India this morning.
The state government has also requested the Indian embassy in Nepal to find out if any more tourists from Telangana are stranded. Senior state officials are also in contact with the Nepalese officials.
