Kathmandu, Oct 3: Minister for Physical Infrastructure and Transport Ramesh Lekhak has said the government has not yet granted permission to operate large vehicles on the BP Highway.
Speaking at a face-to-face programme organised by Reporters’ Club here Sunday, he refuted the allegations that the government had allowed the operation of large vehicles on the highway meant for just an 18-seat micro bus. “Endeavors have been taken to systematise traffic movement on the highway mainly in the festive season for the convenience of passengers by increasing the number of vehicles plying on it, he said.
“The government is ready to introduce other alternatives for the convenience of passengers in view of the Dashain and Tihar festivals,” he added.
Sharing his view on the latest political developments in the country, the Minister said that preparations were on in the political circle to amend the constitution so as to make it widely acceptable. He expressed his confidence that a constitution amendment process would find a way ahead with the political consent soon. RSS
