Expressway should be completed by adopting alternative measures: PM Oli



KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has said that the Kathmandu-Tarai/Madhes Expressway should be completed even by adopting alternative measures.

Taking to his social media account today, he said that the expressway or fast-track should be completed even by adopting alternative measures as the road will connect Kathmandu with the Tarai within an hour.

“A thorough discussion was held last night regarding the problems that lie in the construction of the Khokana-Dukuchhap section of the expressway. As soon as the construction of the Khokana area is completed, the road will connect with the Tarai. We have to complete it even by adopting alternative measures. We do not have much time, so I have urged the ministry and the Nepali Army to find a suitable solution,” Prime Minister Oli wrote.

He has also noted that the Nepali Army is constructing the Kathmandu-Tarai/Madhes Expressway as it is a road project of strategic importance to the country.
