The Madi-Thori road section in Chitwan has been obstructed due to the flood caused by the swollen Ghangharkhola rivulet following incessant rain since last night.
Vehicular movement along the road section has come to a grinding halt due to this, said Police Inspector Kedar Man Dong of the Area Police Office Madi.
Inspector Dong said that vehicles can operate only when the rain stops. Vehicles going to various destinations are stranded, it has been said.
"Bridges are being constructed over the Ghanghar, Bagai and Magui Khola rivulets along the Madi-Thori road," said Tara Kumari Kaji Mahato, Mayor of Madi Municipality.
She said they have requested the Hulaki Road Project Office to promptly complete the bridge construction. Construction of a bridge over the Patarekhola has not yet started, Mayor Mahato said.
