In order to upgrade the road, Road Division Office Dang and District Administration Office Dang issued a notice to close the Rapti Highway for 6 hours a day for 10 days from Friday. But District Administration Office Salyan did not give permission for the closure.

 

The administration of Salyan says that the highway can be closed only if there is no risk to traffic on the alternative route. The administration of Salyan has said that the highway cannot be closed because passengers are still suffering on the alternative route.

After Salyan did not give permission, vehicles are now operating on Rapti highway. A few days ago, Road Division Office Dang published a notice to close the road from June 23 to June 1 from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm, saying that regular vehicle operation has hindered the work of upgrading the road from Chorkhola to Ramri.

Although the Dang administration published the information, Salyan has not released the information yet. The road division office Dang said that during the closed period, the alternative route Paiakhoria Satalwas, Kimuchaur Kapurkot road can be used . But Savitra Pun, the Chief District Officer of Salyan, said that since the road is unpaved, narrow and raining, small vehicles cannot pass through it, due to the risk of accidents.

After telling the road division office Dang and the construction company to improve the alternative route, she said that now the construction company is working with an excavator. "We can give permission for the closure of Rapti highway from Sunday after the alternative route is speeded up," she said, "I am not against development, but it is not so appropriate to close the road and work on development."

Chorkhola-Ramri road section, which is being upgraded, is being blocked by landslides every year and the people of Salyan, Rukum, Dangwasi are suffering, so she requested to complete the work as soon as possible.

Since then, Head of Road Division Office Dang, Dipendra Bahadur Bista said that the development work has been affected by the regular vehicle operation and the construction work has been closed many times due to the fact that there is little possibility of completion of the work on time .
