Summary:
At least six major highways in Nepal are fully blocked due to floods and landslides caused by heavy rain. The blocked highways include:

  • Koshi Highway (Sankhuwasabha)
  • Mechi Highway (Tamor Corridor, Panchthar)
  • Kaligandaki Corridor (Nawalparasi East)
  • Sahid Highway (Rolpa)
  • Jajarkot-Dolpa section of Bheri Corridor (Rukum West)

Some roads allow one-way traffic, including Tokha-Nuwakot road, parts of the Kaligandaki Corridor, Mid-Hill Highway (Galkot), and Sahid Highway (Rolpa).

Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has advised people to avoid long-distance travel unless necessary due to ongoing monsoon risks. The Meteorological Forecasting Division predicts light to heavy rainfall in various provinces, with some hilly and mountainous areas expecting rain and snowfall.

Rescue efforts are underway amid continued disruptions.
