The porter Mudi Latu could not carry the weight of the landslide
An old man known as 'Mudi Latu', who had a smiling face and was always smiling and was ashamed to beg even when he was hungry, was rescued in a critical condition and died in Pokhara.
He slipped in a landslide in Raniwan forest of Beni Municipality-1 and fell down about 25 meters. He succumbed to his injuries at Ratnechaur Health Post and died at Gandaki Hospital, Pokhara on Thursday.
For almost five decades, he had been carrying a heavy load on his forehead and back. From Myagdi, Baglung and Parbat districts to the rural areas, the old man, known as a porter carrying heavy loads, was called by many as 'Mudika Latu' Dai.
Many of the heavyweights did not remain anonymous as they died during the treatment of the elderly they had adopted.
He also pledged not to allow any financial shortage in the treatment of the injured Mudi Latu, who used to go to the customer's house carrying the goods from the shop, go with the bridegroom at the wedding carrying the burden, and carry the load on his stomach for various other tasks.
After his death in Pokhara during treatment, his acquaintances from Parbat and Baglung rushed him to the hospital. Many even posted old pictures of him on social media.
"I was carrying a heavy load in my marriage. I also sought help from a doctor in Pokhara for the necessary treatment," said Raju Poudel, District Coordinating Officer of Baglung.
According to Poudel, even though he used to carry heavy loads in the village, many people used to feed him by cutting their own teeth. The news that the identity of the injured old man was not revealed was immediately noticed by many. He is popular among many porters in the market.
Even after being found dead in an injured condition, the identity of the relatives was heavily carried by 'Mudi Latu' and the relatives were finally found by the police team.
Suman Sharma of Sivanagar Tol in Baglung wrote in a tribute on Facebook, "Namlo on the forehead and laughter on the lips never broke." Along with Sharma, many have expressed grief over the news of his death.
Meanwhile, Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Kiran Jung Kunwar of Myagdi said that the relative was identified as he was very interested in social media and even on the phone.
"There are many people who speak for the porter who can't speak," said Pranau Kunwar. Dhan Bahadur Khati Kshatriya, ward chairman of Mangala Gaonpalika-2, Baviachaur has gone to Pokhara to collect the body of the deceased.
In particular, he worked for a long time in Pang and Khurkot. The news of his demise has worried even the people of Pang Khurkot.
