Kathmandu. The Government of India has decided to provide a bailey bridge to temporarily restore the road connectivity that was damaged due to the massive flooding in the Bhotekoshi River in Rasuwa.
Responding to a query of journalists at a regular press briefing in New Delhi, Indian Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said homework was underway to send relief materials to Bailey Bridge as requested by the Government of Nepal.
The floods have swept away more than 18 concrete and iron bridges connecting highways and auxiliary roads in Rasuwa, Nuwakot and Dhading districts. Dozens of rural municipalities in Rasuwa, Nuwakot and Dhading districts have been cut off from road connectivity with other destinations as the rivers have also washed away roads in various places.
