The portion of the bridge towards Narayangadh is dangerous. So Three people were injured when stones fell on an Indian car at the place on July 4. Similarly, on July 29, three people were injured when stones fell on an Indian truck.
Narayangadh Muglin Road is the main road connecting the capital Kathmandu and the tourist city Pokhara with the eastern and western parts of the country. 10,000 vehicles pass through this road every day. By expanding this road, which is called the lifeline of the capital, widening of two lanes in accordance with Asian standards, 18 new bridges have been added.
But when the road is expanded and the bridge is built, there is a huge problem of landslides and dry landslides that cause pain in the places where the mountains are cut.
