Seven-year-delayed leduwa bridge leaves locals struggling in Dharan

A seven-year-delayed bridge project over the Leduwa Khola in Dharan Sub-Metropolitan City–5, Sunsari, remains incomplete, forcing locals and students to risk crossing the river, especially during the monsoon. The contract was signed in July 2020 with a completion deadline of July 2021, but construction stalled early on. Despite repeated extensions and promises, work has not resumed, further complicated by an interim court order obtained by the contractor.
