Passengers have been stranded after vehicles heading to and from Baitadi stuck midway due to the road obstruction, police said. 


When asked, Deputy Superintendent of Police Mohan Prasad Pokharel said that the road would be cleared only after rains stop as continuous rains caused problems to their efforts to clear the debris.
