TRIVENI, July 4: The landslides that occurred in different parts of the hilly area in Nawalpur district have halted the vehicular movement for five days.

Deputy Superintendent of Police in Nawalpur, Bed Prasad Paudel, informed that transportation was impossible because a landslide occurred at Kusmot-Pokhari section of Daldhl-Pokhari road.

Similarly, the landslides at Baudikali, Bulingtar and Hupsekot in the district caused complete halt of vehicular movement. The landslides are caused by the incessant rainfall occurred for some days here.

Although efforts are made to clear the debris, continuous rainfall has triggered the problems. "Incessant rainfall has caused landslides," he added.

It was difficult to remove debris at Pangger and Pokhari sections of Hupsekot Rural Municipality-5. The roadway to reach Dedhgao from Pokhari is completely blocked.

A local from Baudikali-5, Ges Bahadur Shrestha, shared that they were bound to make travel via Muglin-Narayangarh to reach district headquarters.

A local from Bulingtar, Tol Bahadur Rana, also shared the plight that major roads were not black-topped and upgraded, which posed challenges to a huge number of people.
