Landslide disrupts Narayangadh-Muglin road section



CHITWAN: Road traffic has been disrupted along the Narayangadh-Muglin road section since this morning due to landslides.

Vehicular movement was obstructed after landslides occurred at Setodobhan area of Bharatpur Municipality last night.

Landslide at a place called Seti Dhobhan in ward no. 29 of Bharatpur metropolis took place at around 10:00 pm last night.

The road is being affected in regular intervals due to rain-triggered landslides since the past three days.

According to Spokesperson of District Police Office Chitwan, Surya Bahadur Thapa, the continuous rain has caused it difficult to remove the debris from the road.

As result, both way traffic remains stalled since last night. Efforts are being made to clear the debris of the landslide with the help of dozers but would take some time as rainfall continues, said the District Police Office, Chitwan.

The road was only opened for traffic at 9:00 am on Saturday, after clearing the debris of the landslide in various sections of the road.
