Blasting of rocks to construct roads on Indian side of the border causes damage in Nepal

KHALANGA, July 15: Blasting rock to construct roads on the Indian side of the border has affected people on the Nepali side, it has been reported.

Stones hurled in course of the blast at Dharchula Tehsil of Pithoragarh district, India, have caused damage to three houses and cowsheds at Masinibaluwa of Mahakali Municipality-5 on the Nepali side, said Inspector Gyanendra Bahadur Singh, also an information officer at the District Police Office, Darchula.

The damaged houses belong to locals Naravan Badu, Harak Singh Thagunna and Jagat Singh Thagunna. "The stones flung from the blast reach farmlands of the local people in Nepal. India blasts rocks without early warning, thus causing risks," said Badu.
