Pawan Bhattarai, head of road division office, Ilam, conveyed the good news to the higher authorities at 11 am on Saturday morning saying, "We have succeeded in the construction of the belay bridge, now if the load test is successful, we will reach complete success".

As the longest belay bridge is being built in Nepal, a team of experts was brought from India for a week. They were increasing the work according to the guidelines. While preparing to celebrate Khushiyali, it was like falling from a cliff when the Beilibridge collapsed along with the laborers on Saturday evening. 

He said that he felt for the first time that even if 99 percent are successful, one percent will cheat and it made him worried. 

So far, the alternative to Belibridge is Belibridge, so the same thing will have to be done here again. However, he plans to get experts to study how it fell and move forward. 

Road Division Office Ilam has been regulating the road from Jhapa to Taplejung under the Mechi Highway. "The belay bridge that fell on Saturday blocked the road," he said, "The first thing to do is to remove it and move the traffic." There is concern that the river will flood and the diversion will be washed away as it has started raining. We are also paying attention to organizing it. After that, we will study it and connect it again.' He said that

will be studied and reconstructed from the higher authorities as well. This single-span belay bridge would be 70 meters long when completed. Dobhan Super Saugaz JV was constructing this bridge at a cost of Rs 3 crore 49 lakh. Bhattarai says that as a strong structure has been made on both sides of Waripari, experts will study it and prepare the next action plan. Since this bridge connects Hilihang, Yangwarak and Phalelung Rural Municipality of Taplejung District Panchthar, residents of this area are worried after the bridge collapse.

The Panchthar Police Office has informed that three of the working laborers died when the Belybridge collapsed and three others are undergoing treatment.
