The Surkhet-Jumla road under the Karnali highway, which was blocked due to the collapse of the wall under the road due to a landslide, has been opened after a week. Calikot police chief Tek Bahadur Rawat informed that the big cargo vehicle that was stopped by the landslide was on its way to its destination.
"The wall of the road was completely destroyed by the landslide," he said. The big vehicles were stopped for a week.
He informed that the Road Division Office Jumla installed 2 breaker machines to break the rocks above the road but the road did not open on Friday.
On Friday, after the explosion by the army and police teams, large vehicles will also be moving. Chief District Officer Narayan Prasad Bhattarai said, "It costs crores to break a single stone in Karnali." They stopped at Tadi, Pili, Wali, Galje and Nagma Bazar. Tilagufa Nagar Deputy Chief Mahendra Bahadur Shahi said that three weeks ago when there was a landslide in this place, the Road Division Office, Jumla, put up a wall and repaired the road.
At the end of the financial year, the trucks carrying construction materials for Jumla and Mugu were stopped at Tadi, Bali and other places in Calikot, said businessman Ratan Mahtara.
Truck driver Navin Vishwakarma said that the truck carrying food for Jumla and Mugu was also stopped on the way. He said that after 7 days the road will open and he will go to Jumla.
A landslide occurred near Galje due to Juwitha Jiulo water along with rainwater. Hundreds of goods vehicles were stopped as the wall collapsed on the narrow road. Small cars pass by. Pragya Narayan Prasad Bhattarai of Calikot said that there is no condition for large vehicles to go. He informed that the team of road division office Jumla has been asked to work at the place of landslide with machines.
Since the vehicle has been stopped since Thursday, the driver of the cargo truck Police constable Chandra Bahadur Gharti of the temporary traffic post Khallagad said that although the co-driver and passengers tried to build a concrete wall, it was not possible. "We are sending small vehicles," he said, "buses and goods vehicles are stopped." The police said that the vehicle going to Dailekh Surkhet was stopped. Babur Shahi, an entrepreneur from Manm Bazar, complained that the Karnali highway is blocked by landslides during rains. "There is always trouble when the road is not moving," he said.
The Nagma Jumla section of the Karnali highway with a total length of 233 km is in good condition, but below that, the Kalikot and Dailekh sections are slippery and muddy.
