KANCHANPUR, June 14:  Telecommunication services in Shuklaphanta Municipality-10, Jhalari Bazar area have been disrupted for four days. The telecom and internet service have been disrupted due to an issue in the optical fiber. In absence of a proper network, there have been issues in call services in GSM mobile phones.

The head of Mahendranagar branch of Nepal Telecom, Pritam Bhatta said that a breakage in the optical fiber has caused difficulty in operating telecom services which has created trouble for the customers. According to Senior engineer at the Attariya branch of Nepal Telecom, Prakash Bhatta, the areas where the optical fibers have snapped are undergoing repair.

The service has been disrupted due to cutting of optical fiber in many places on the road being constructed by Ammarpur-Kaluwapur Drinking Water Users Committee and Urban Development Project in Jhalari.

Similarly, the consumers have demanded legal actions against the Users’ Committee and the contractor for the haphazard operation of heavy equipment, damaging the optical fiber. Bhatta, head of Mahendranagar branch of Nepal Telecom, mentioned that preparations were being made to take legal actions against those who cut the optical fiber line.
