EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Navesh Chitrakar, we witness the harsh reality of a water crisis in Bhaktapur, Nepal. The photograph depicts a woman desperately filling her pot with water after retrieving it from an almost dried-up well. It is April 4,2013, and Nepal is grappling with an acute shortage of safe and adequate drinking water. The scene evokes a sense of urgency and desperation as the woman's actions symbolize the struggle faced by a large portion of the Nepalese population. With limited access to clean water sources, daily life becomes challenging for these individuals who must go to great lengths just to secure their basic needs. This photograph serves as a stark reminder that while many take clean water for granted, there are still countless communities around the world facing severe scarcity. It sheds light on the pressing issue of inadequate infrastructure and resources required to provide safe drinking water to all citizens. Navesh Chitrakar's poignant capture not only highlights societal challenges but also emphasizes our collective responsibility towards addressing such crises. Through visual storytelling like this image, we are compelled to reflect upon our own privileges and consider ways in which we can contribute towards ensuring universal access to one of life's most fundamental necessities – clean drinking water.
