Four days of rain have caused problems in traffic as vehicles have become stuck in the mud of Daunne. Vehicles have become stuck at a place called Ghyukhola and 65 Mod, about 4 kilometers west of Dumkibas, causing problems in two-way traffic operations here.
Police Inspector Thaman Singh Rana of the Area Police Office, Dumkibas, said that the police were deployed to make arrangements for vehicles to come and go in turns on Sunday as the Daunne road was slippery. Vehicles that arrived in Dumkibas at 3 am have not yet reached Bardaghat. There is a 15-kilometer-long jam in the Dumkibas and Bardaghat areas due to vehicles getting stuck in the mud.
'Vehicles are moving but at a snail's pace. The long jam has occurred as the llama and freight vehicles could not climb the mud,' said Rana.
It took more than 9 hours to cross the 9-kilometer area of Daunne, said Ram Bahadur Chaudhary, who was stuck in Daunne. 'I reached here at 3 am to go to Bhairahawa. I am in Daunne, it seems that it will take another two hours to reach Bardaghat,' he said.
The situation in Daunne has always been like this for the last 7 years with normal rainfall. Vehicles get stuck in the mud and it becomes difficult to travel. Thousands of passengers have been suffering every day due to the failure of the China State Engineering Corporation, which has been given the responsibility of widening the highway, to work.
Out of the 113-kilometer road section of the Mahendra Highway, 9 kilometers of the Daunne hill road are potholes and dusty.
Out of the 14 kilometers of the Mahendra Highway between Dumkibas in East Nawalparasi and Bardaghat in West Nawalparasi, about 5 kilometers have been paved. Passengers have always been frustrated because the highway has not been sloped for 7 years after it was demolished to make way for a slope.
