Kathmandu. “After the rain, there is no situation to walk on the hill. There is a situation to cross the muddy road by holding the walls of other people’s houses,” said Subhadra Bhattarai of Butwal, looking at the road in Ward No. 31 of Shankhmul. The road.

Kathmandu Metropolitan City-31 had dug the road to spend the budget here, but it was not managed, causing a lot of trouble to the people along the road and those coming through this route. “There is no other alternative to this way home. You have to walk every day, trouble after walking. Asti’s little granddaughter slipped into the mud. There is a similar risk for us, the elderly, to walk,” said Bhattarai.

Most of the passengers leaving Baneshwor or Babarmahal via Koteshwor-Balkumari corridor road are seeing the plight here. Most of them are angry that the road has not been dug up after June÷ and even if it is not completed on time, it has not been managed normally. The locals, who are forced to use this road daily, are even more angry. Although the ward has demolished the road to keep drinking water pipes, electric wires and large drains, there is a problem in the business business. Maya Tamang, a vegetable trader, complained that the movement of people has decreased due to difficulty in commuting due to mud and this has caused losses to the traders.

It’s equally difficult to pick up garbage when it’s muddy. Locals have to collect garbage and reach the chowk. Advocate and local Bhupendra Pokhrel said it was irresponsible to dig the road without caring about the normal movement of the people in the name of development. He said that the digging of the road was done without bothering how the people would move. “Don’t you have to think where people go? In the name of development, it will not be left in the lurch, that too in the rainy season,” he said. ’

Shankar Karki, who brought his son to a school in Shankhmul from Koteshwor, said that there was a lot of problem due to the muddy road. According to him, people coming through Balkumari, Koteshwor and Tinkune corridors near Shankhmul Ganesh Marg are facing problems.

Ramesh Lamichhane, a grocery shop trader, said that their daily livelihood business has come to a standstill as the road has been dug up in the name of development. Mud continues throughout the rainy season and dust in April-April,” he said, adding, “In the name of development, it is condemnable to work in such a way that the daily life of the citizens is badly affected.” ’

Lamichhane complained that although the locals had drawn the attention of the ward office on this issue, they were not heard. “While digging the pit, the work would have been done by managing the mud coming out of the road and making it a little flat, but the way it was demolished here, it is the same. This is the negligence of the people’s representatives. ’

Saroj Dhakal, ward chair of Kathmandu Metropolitan City-31, said that there was a problem as all the works were not completed at the end of the last fiscal year due to the plan to carry out other works simultaneously along with sewage management. “The six-inch sewer that was installed 50 years ago has been replaced with a large 42-inch drain. This has happened as preparations have been made to lay drinking water pipes and electric wires simultaneously,” he said. Can’t gravel in mud. It’s difficult for the locals, but there’s no other way. After three or four months, a better road will be built than before!”
