GULMI: The Kaligandaki Corridor has been blocked again following a dry landslide in the Rakse section of Kaligandaki Rural Municipality-2, Gulmi. The road has remained completely impassable since this evening after rocks and debris fell from the hillside above the road.
Kaligandaki Rural Municipality Chairman Bed Bahadur Thapa said traffic had been disrupted after a dry landslide, accompanied by falling rocks, struck the road just three days after it was reopened.
Warning of further risks from the unstable hillside, Thapa said dozers would be deployed to clear the debris and reopen the road tomorrow morning, following an assessment of the landslide situation.
Information Officer and Deputy Superintendent of Police at the District Police Office, Gulmi, Birendra Bir Bishwakarma, said it would not be possible to clear the landslide tonight because rocks and debris were continuing to fall from above the road.
The road closure has left vehicles and passengers traveling along the corridor toward Palpa, Butwal, Baglung and Parbat stranded. The Kaligandaki Corridor is one of the busiest roads in the district.
