KATHMANDU, Aug 7: Supreme Court on Sunday stayed the expansion of Kalanki-Nagdhunga road pending the next order from the court.

Shrestha and 46 other locals had filed a writ petition on February 23 claiming that the expansion work was being carried forward without completing the process of compensating them and ignoring the set procedures.
