Banchare Danda residents protest again, obstruct dumping of waste from Kathmandu

KATHMANDU, July 17: Locals and people's representatives of Kakani Rural Municipality have started a protest again, saying that they will not allow waste to be disposed of at Banchare Danda Landfill Site.

They have obstructed the border of Kakani Rural Municipality and Dhunibesi since Monday morning. Due to the obstruction by the locals, the vehicles carrying waste to the landfill site are stuck on the road.

Sarkar Deep Shrestha, in-charge of the landfill site of Kathmandu Metropolitan City, said that around 50 vehicles carrying garbage were stopped by the locals.
