JOMSOM: The Beni–Jomsom road, which connects the northern region of Myagdi to the popular tourist district of Mustang, has been blocked due to a landslide.

According to Vishal Darji, Assistant Inspector of Police at the District Police Office, the road has been obstructed since early Friday morning by a landslide at Baisari, Raghu Ganga Rural Municipality-2 in Myagdi. Efforts to clear the road are underway, but continuous landslides are hampering progress.
