KATHMANDU – Around 100 thousand people are daily leaving Kathmandu Valley for their home districts to celebrate the Dashain festival, the biggest festival of the Nepalis.<\/p>\n
Deputy Superintendent of Police at the Kathmandu Valley Traffic Office, Rabin Karki, said that the number of vehicles and passengers exiting from the four major transit points of the Valley has surged.<\/p>\n
DSP Karki said that around 100 thousand passengers have been exiting from the Valley daily since the last three days. “The number of people exiting the Valley on Monday and today has increased as compared to their numbers on Sunday and Tuesday,” he said.<\/p>\n
According to him, 30 thousand people are entering the federal capital daily. Karki said that unlike during last year’s Dashain, passengers need not wait for hours to cross the transit points this Dashain despite the dense traffic at the Buspark, Kalanki, Balkhu, Koteshwar and Sitapaila.<\/p>\n
Passengers are travelling to their respective destinations outside the Valley via Araniko highway, Tribhuvan highway, Prithvi highway, and the Dakshinkali-Hetauda and the Kanti highways at present.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
