Question

How many cities will be developed there along with pushpalal highway

Answer 1

Answer:

It can seem almost impossible considering the terrain of steep hills and deep valleys, but it’s nonetheless a fact. The Mid-hill Highway – going from East to West across the interior of the country – is getting nearer completion! The Mid-hill Highway is now bending its way from Chiyabhanjyang of Panchathar in the East to Jhulaghat of Baitadi in the Far-west – a distance of 1776 km. – through a total of 24 districts and 225 VDCs, directly affecting 7 million people! How near completion is it? Well, it remains a bit unclear, but large sections are already in use!

The Mid-hill highway – also called the Pushpalal highway – was initiated under the Maoist government after the 2008 election. It’s envisaged as an “artery” to infuse many of the less accessible and often stagnant communities in the Mid-hill area with growth “oxygen”. Marked by low income and increasing out-migration of unemployed youth, as well as poor access to public services, these communities are expected to benefit from the easier access to markets in Terai and elsewhere. The overall idea: to help local people earn an income where they live!
