KALIKOT, July 8: The Karnali Corridor, which was closed for three days, has been opened. The Karnali Corridor was opened on Saturday three days after it was closed due to landslides triggered by incessant rainfall in two places in Khulalu and Jarkot sections.

The Lalighat section of the corridor is also very vulnerable. Vehicular movement along the corridor is very risky as landslides are coming down from Lusa village of Sannitriveni rural municipality-1.

As the work of the Phukot Karnali semi-reservoir project is underway, police say that it is not possible to predict when a major landslide could occur due to the continuous flow of muddy soil.
