Nawalpur, January 25
The widening of the Narayangadh-Butwal road section along the East-West Highway has so far made only 23 per cent progress.
The road widening project that had to be completed in mid-July 2022 has witnessed dismal progress even after 48 months have elapsed since the project inception.
According to Kwang Silk Park, the team leader of the consultant carrying out the Narayangadh-Butwal road expansion project, road widening has been delayed due to complications brought out by the Covid pandemic, the fall of trees, electricity pole transfer and a lack of sufficient mobilisation of equipment.
