Nepal Suspends Kathmandu Public Transport Due to Landslides from Heavy Rainfall
Authorities in Nepal suspended public transport to and from Kathmandu after heavy rainfall caused landslides blocking key highways, including the Prithvi and BP highways. Overnight restrictions were imposed on the Kavrepalanchok section of the BP Highway until Sunday morning, with possible extensions under review. Landslides also affected roads in Chitwan and Dhading districts, leading to extended closures. Officials continue to monitor conditions amid ongoing rain to ensure safety and assess further disruptions.
