Efforts to open Martadi-Kolti road

Kathmandu: The Nepali Army has been working to help open the Martadi-Kolti road.

A landslide had blocked traffic on the road for the past two months. Head of Durgabhanjan battalion Dharmendra Bahadur Singh said the army has been mobilized to remove landslides and repair the roads after traffic was blocked from Kolti to Martadi along with the traveling of residents of Badimalika Municipality-7.

This particular section of the road has been hit by continuous landslides since the onset of the monsoon, causing problems for travelers and residents. As a result, the vehicles plying on the Martadi-Kolti road remain stranded while those suffering the most are those required to travel for medical treatment outside the district.

Meanwhile, the residents of Ward No. 7 of the municipality have also joined the efforts in removing the landslide debris.
