The e-rickshaw drivers of Khadak Municipality of Saptari are protesting because the road is not being built and it is difficult for the passengers to go back and forth. They blocked the Kushmahar Kharkuhiya road on Thursday. Since early morning, they have blocked the road by constructing a dam at Ward No. 5 Gaururaha.

Ravinath Chaudhary, an e-rickshaw driver, said that he was forced to protest after the accident on the road, which became slippery after the rain. "A good road has been built from here for one kilometer to the south, but it is muddy in the dry season and muddy in the rains up to the Kharkuhia market," he said, "even though 4/5 e-rickshaws are falling in potholes every day, no one has paid attention to building or repairing the road." "Due to the bad condition of the road, passengers are not allowed to board e-rickshaws, it is becoming difficult for us to make a living," he added, "but no one understands our problem." They have demanded that the road should be repaired immediately.
