Vehicular movement along several sections of the BP Highway in Kavrepalanchok has been completely disrupted following a series of landslides and mudslides triggered by continuous rainfall.
Authorities have halted eastbound vehicles at Bhakunde after multiple landslides blocked key sections of the highway, with police warning that it will take considerable time to clear the debris and reopen the route.
According to police, landslides have occurred at several points including Chauki Danda, Nangsalk Crusher in Charsebesi, Bokshikuna, and Mamti. Mudslides have also blocked sections of the road in Narke, Pinthalibesi, and Biruwadanda.
Inspector Ishwar Karki, chief of the Mangalatar Area Police Office, said rescue and clearance efforts were temporarily stopped after another landslide struck the area while work was underway at Chauki Danda, posing risks to the team amid ongoing rain.
Kavre District Police Chief Komal Shah said that clearing operations are in progress but may take time due to continuous rainfall. He advised travelers to stay updated on road conditions before setting out.
