PATHARI: The construction of Kanepokhari-Rangeli postal road in Morang has been gaining momentum. Indian contractor company GVR Infra Project Limited, Chennai had started the road construction in March 2011 and there was an agreement for the company to hand over the road to Nepal government by August 2013. But when the company left the construction work after 18 months, Nepali construction company Danfe the Kanchanjunga Construction Pvt Ltd started blacktopping the road with the grant assistance of Indian government. With this, the project has witnessed substantial progress. The Kanepokhari-Rangeli postal road, which is to be constructed at the total cost of Rs 702.43 million, has the length of 24.4 km. Regional Planning Chief of the Postal Road Project Shailendra Mani Tripathi shared that around 96 per cent of the work of the project on Kanepokhari-Rangeli road has been completed. Tripathi further said that according to the Memorandum of Understanding signed, the Company shall hand over the road to the government on June 2019.
