The nature has been a very big hazard in High altitude area apart from land slide and poor road communication conditions.
Chapter 10. 5 of Srimad Bhagwat Geeta very clearly states that in this materialistic word nothing is auspicious. Even nature is also inauspicious.
In other countries death rates are much less for they have good road and line communication that we need to develop as yet.
