Vehicular movement along the Beni-Darbang road section has resumed after 10 days.

The road section was obstructed due to a landslide at Faparkhet, the border of Beni Municipality-4 and Mangala Rural Municipality-2 on July 12.

The 24-km road is considered the 'lifeline' of western Myagdi.

Due to the obstruction, there was a problem in the movement, construction and transportation of food items as well as transporting the patients to the hospital.

Chief District Officer Laxman Dhakal said, "The risk has not abated on the road section. The Beni-Darwang road section has been open since Sunday evening after the landslide debris was cleared".

Mangala Rural Municipality Chair Sata Prasad Roka said that contingency budget has been demanded for the alternative road and the concerned bodies have been requested to work in such a way that the passengers do not suffer from now on.

Landslides are considered the main challenges along the road section.

The road connects Dhaulagiri, Malika and Mangala rural municipalities of Western Myagdi with the district headquarters Beni.
