The abrupt fire is rapidly spreading to adjoining houses and hotels. Police, Nepal Army personnel, local residents and tourists are trying to take the fire under control.
The frozen water due to extreme cold is making it difficult to douse the fire. There is, however, no loss of life in the blaze that police believes started due to electric short circuit.
