    Women who lost shops in the August 26 flood seek help to restart

    Women who ran small businesses along the rivers of Nuwakot, Rasuwa and Dhading lost stock, savings and premises in the August 26 flood, and many say they want support to trade again rather than relief alone. The government's Rs15,000 monthly housing allowance covers families who lost permanent homes, but there is no clear arrangement for those who rented shops. Officials in Nuwakot put the number of directly affected small traders and household businesses at more than 2,000. Bagmati Province says revival programmes for small entrepreneurs will follow once immediate relief ends. From public sources and the WeNepal research team

    KMC halts waste collection as rain damages Bancharedanda landfill road

    Waste collection and disposal in Kathmandu have been suspended after heavy rain sent muddy water flowing at the Bancharedanda landfill site and left the access road in poor condition. In a notice issued on Friday, 26 September 2026, Kathmandu Metropolitan City said the transport and disposal of waste had been halted and asked residents not to put out household waste for now, nor to dump it on roads, at junctions, in rivers, drains or open spaces. Pushkar Bhattarai, chief of the KMC Environment Management Division, said waste-carrying vehicles were stranded along the route after a landslide blocked the road. Bancharedanda, on the Nuwakot–Dhading border, is the Valley's main landfill. From public sources and the WeNepal research team

    Krishnabhir landslide cleared, traffic back on Nagdhunga-Muglin road

    Vehicles are moving again on the Nagdhunga-Muglin road section after landslide debris at Krishnabhir was removed. Satendra Mishra, Information Officer of the Nagdhunga-Muglin Road Project (West Section), said the slide had fallen on the road's retaining wall and the gabion wall beside it had collapsed, but 2 to 3 metres of ground still separate the main track from the damage and the surface shows no major cracks. Heavy machinery has been deployed to clear slides at seven other points, including Panidhara, Dharapani, Jawang, Jalbire and Rorang. Continued rain is slowing the work, and travellers have been urged to take care. From public sources and the WeNepal research team

    Landslides shut BP and Prithvi highways as heavy rain persists

In Chitwan, the Prithvi Highway and the Narayanghat-Muglin road are shut until further notice. Landslides hit seven spots on the Prithvi Highway in Dhading, two of them fully blocked, and three locations on the Lalitpur side of the Kanti Lokpath.

    Subsidence and landslides slow Prithvi Highway traffic in Chitwan

    On the Chitwan side, the Mugling–Mauwakhola stretch is open to one-way traffic, while the Dhading section has not yet fully reopened. At Dharapani in ward 4 the road has subsided further, so only small vehicles are being let through, one way at a time. Near Mugling, a landslide at Simaldhara in ward 5 has reduced the road to a single lane, and falling rocks are hampering clearance. The agencies responsible say they are monitoring the road and running traffic with caution. From public sources and the WeNepal research team
