BIRATNAGAR, June 7: Telephone service in various areas of Biratnagar in Morang has been cut off since last night after its underground cables got snapped in the course of the road widening near the Shani Temple.
Repair section chief of the Biratnagar branch of Nepal Telecom Shambhu Prasad Chaudhary said though bodies concerned were informed about the locations where the underground telephone wires were installed, the road widening task being carried out with the help of an excavator caused damages to the cables.
He said that it will take at least three days to resume the service. RSS
