DHAKA: Frustration is growing in parts of rural Nepal over the pace of relief efforts, with some badly-affected villages yet to receive any assistance.

Survivors in some areas told the BBC that they were angry that aid neither food nor medicine has reached them.

The UN has appealed for $415m to help provide emergency relief over the next three months.

Officials say Saturday’s quake killed more than 5,500 people, and injured at least 11,000.

Meanwhile, a 15-year-old boy has been found alive in a damaged building in the capital, Kathmandu.

Rescuers are still trying to bring the boy out of the rubble, says BBC Five Live’s Nick Garnett, who is at the scene.

The UN says more than eight million people have been affected by Saturday’s 7.8-magnitude quake and some 70,000 houses have been destroyed.

The government says it has been overwhelmed by the disaster.
