KATHMANDU, March 26: The Kalanki-Koteswor road expansion project has failed to achieve its goal of completing  the expansion within the predetermined time period.


This project financially and technically supported by Chinese government was supposed to be completed by May 15, 2016. However, only half of the total project activities have been completed thus far.
