Kathmandu, Aug 18: Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal has lauded the initiatives undertaken by Minister for Physical Infrastructure and Transport Ramesh Lekhak towards minimizing the road accidents.
The directive issued by PM Dahal to Minister Lekhak on Wednesday reads, “I issue a directive to the authority concerned to put in place a mechanism that would end syndicate system and bring to justice to those not abiding by traffic rules.”
PM Dahal has also expressed deep sorrow over the road accident at Birta of Kavrepalanchowk district on Monday where 27 passengers died. The government is working to pay for the treatment of those injured in the incident, according to Binod Bahadur Kunwar, Spokesperson of the Office of the Prime Minister and the Council Of Ministers.
