Although the alternative road was included in the government's policy and program in the past, the budget was allocated for the study, but later the government canceled the plan. Til Bahadur Thapa, Chairman of Devghat Rural Municipality, said that if the road can be constructed, Devghat Rural Municipality will become a center of economic and religious tourism.
