Kathmandu. The film ‘Chakkapanja 5’ extended a helping hand to restore water supply facilities in Dapcha in flood-affected Kavre. Producer and actor Deepakraj Giri and executive producer Nirmal Sharma provided the necessary materials for the construction of the stream at the ceremony organized on Sunday.
