KATHMANDU, SEP 03 -
A landslide triggered by incessant rainfall in Thulokhola on the border of Nuwakot district has affected garbage disposal on Friday.
The Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) resumed garbage collection, which was disrupted by locals of Sisdole and Okharpauwa for around two weeks, from yesterday deploying security force in the landfill site. However, garbage disposal has been again disrupted due to the landslide.
KMC Executive Officer Ananda Raj Pokhrel said KMC staffs have been sent to remove the landslide obstruction as KMC has been clearing small landslides in different places leading to the landfill site for the garbage disposal.
He said it will take a few more days to collect garbage piled up on streets and corners in different parts of the Capital. The KMC had ferried 66 truckloads of garbage from Teku yesterday.
