- there seems to be a confusion here, as Tala and Dala and Darla refer to the same place, while the Tala Hydro is not based in Tala town, but its offices were in Gedu and its works at Sinchekha; the offices and staff housing has been recently moved out of Gedu town see eg Leo van der Velden, "Sinchekha PO: a Post Office in a Tin Shed" in 'Postal Himal', #150, 2nd Quarter 2012 http://himalaya.socanth.cam.ac.uk/collections/journals/postalhimal/pdf/PH_2012_002.pdf
