RASUWA, June 12: Over the past ten years, more than 14,500 electric vehicles produced in China have been imported through Rasuwagadhi. With the increasing import of electric vehicles, many of them have been left parked in areas such as Timure, Ghattikhola, and Rasuwagadhi. A large number of these vehicles remain idle because importers have not completed the customs clearance process.
According to Rabindra Pyakurel, the information officer at the Rasuwa Customs Office, customs clearance has been completed for 2,570 vehicles, which have already been transported toward Kathmandu.
