Acting Mayor Dangol shows concern over Maitighar submerge

Kathmandu, July 31: Acting Mayor of Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC), Sunita Dangol said separate drain pipe systems for sewage and rainwater outlet would be devised at Maitighar Mandala area for a long-term solution to recurring flooding problem during the rainy season.

Talking to RSS, she said the drainage system is unable to bear the load when there is more than usual rain. “Currently, in most places, sewage and rainwater flow through the same system so it does not work with unusual rainfall.”
