Aarti Hamal, the daughter of Gopal Hamal, the mayor of Dhangadhi Sub-metropolitan City, who had seemingly gone missing in Goa, India, since Monday, has been located.

According to reports, Aarti has been found with a foreign woman in Goa, as indicated by a social media post featuring their pictures. The information was brought to light by Nepalis residing in the USA who came across the social media post and promptly informed the family. Subsequently, Aarti's younger sister and son-in-law have reached her in Goa.

Earlier, Mayor Hamal had taken to 'X', formerly known as Twitter, to share that his elder daughter, Aarti, who had been at the Osho Meditation Centre in Goa for the past few months, had gone missing. He had appealed to all to assist in the search for his daughter.

Following the situation, Aarti's younger sister, Arzoo Hamal, along with her son-in-law, flew to Goa to track down Aarti.
