Both PM Modi and the Afghanistan president began their speeches acknowledging the devastation in Nepal. The PM addressing Nepal, said, "You are not alone at this moment of tragedy and trial. We will do everything possible with rescue and relief. And, we will certainly be there when you rebuild your lives and reconstruct your homes and heritage."

The death toll in Nepal stands at 4,350. But Nepal PM Sushil Koirala has said it could go up to 10,000. If it does, that would be even higher than the 8,500 killed in a massive 1934 quake, the Himalayan nation's worst disaster to date.
