According to police, vehicles traveling through the BP Highway have been stopped at Dhulikhel in Kavre, while coordination with the Sindhuli security committee has been made to stop vehicles at Khurkot and Nepalthok.

Police have urged everyone to travel only after getting updated information about the road condition.
