Myagdi, Aug 15: The Road Division Office has carried out maintenance of the 14-km-long Baglung-Beni road at the cost of Rs 32.1 million.

Engineer at the office, Bishnu Prasad Lamichhane stated that the road has been expanded by clearing of landslide debris at Hulake, Bhasbhase, Dhadeni, Sim, and Pangrekhola, and also that a drainage system has been constructed with slope, gravel, and asphalt. He further shared that concrete drainage channels, gabion walls, and retaining walls have been placed for rainwater drainage.
