SC directs govt to curb road disruptions for VVIP traffic



KATHMANDU: The Supreme Court (SC) has instructed the government to refrain from causing road disruptions under the pretext of facilitating traffic for VVIPs.

The directive was issued by a division bench comprising Justices Manojkumar Sharma and Mahesh Sharma Paudel on Tuesday.

The writ petition, submitted on February 2, 2018, was finally heard on Tuesday.
