According to Engineer Sachindra Mishra, information officer of the western section of the Naubise-Muglin Road Project, it was difficult to clear the road as the dry landslide was falling from about 35 meters above. Although the wall was not cut at the place, the landslide fell from above itself. He said that there is a risk of landslide at any time as the place is weak.TAG_OPEN_div_7
