Various sections of the BP Highway have been blocked since Thursday night. Various sections of the BP Highway have been blocked due to falling mud and rocks following continuous rain.

In Kavre's Namobuddha Municipality-6 Chowkidanda, Roshi Rural Municipality-7 Charsayabesi, Roshi Rural Municipality-11 Dalabesi, Roshi Rural Municipality-9 Biruwdanda, Koksikuna Biruwdanda and Narke areas, the road has been blocked in both directions due to landslides and rocks falling from above.

Despite efforts to clear the landslide, it is not possible to open it immediately as rocks and rocks are falling, said Suman Yogesh, Chief of the Road Division Office, Bhaktapur. Vehicles going from Kathmandu have been stopped towards Dhulikhel and Kavrebhanjyang due to continuous rain. On the other hand, those heading east have been stopped in Nepalthok.

'There is no possibility of opening it immediately due to the rain. Excavators have not been able to be used to remove the obstruction,' said Chief Yogesh.

As an alternative to the BP Highway, you can exit Kavre via Khurkot in Sindhuli, Manthali in Ramechhap, Charikot in Dolakha, and Khadichaur in Sindhupalchowk. Narayan Dutta Bhandari, Chief of the Road Division Office, Charikot, said that there are no obstacles at any place on these roads.
