KATHMANDU: A landslide at Satkilo in Thakre Rural Municipality, Dhading, has blocked the Kathmandu–Mugling road section in both directions along the Prithvi Highway.
The most recent landslide occurred at around 3:30 AM, causing a full blockage of the road. A similar landslide had also occurred at the same location the previous night.
Although traffic had briefly resumed after the initial landslide was cleared, the route was closed again early this morning due to another slide, said DSP Subash Hamal, Information Officer at the District Police Office, Dhading.
Efforts are currently underway to clear the debris and reopen the highway.
