i dont know how relevant is this news on this post, but just doing some contribution.. Source : Nepalnews.com Traffic resumes along Bhim Dutta highway Traffic has resumed along Bhim Dutta highway-- that connects Dhandgadhi and Dadeldhura in the far-western region -- from Tuesday, the state-owned Radio Nepal said. According to the news report, security forces cleared the road with the help of local people that remained blocked for the last three days. The rebels had blocked the road by cutting huge logs of trees at the Goganpani- Gaira section of the road to enforce their week-long blockade of Dadeldhura district since Sunday. Thousands of commuters who were visiting their houses on the occasion of Dashain had been stranded due to the blockade. One of the modus operandi of the rebels has been to cut off trees to restrict movement along highways or disrupt movement of troops as and when they plan major offensive in the region. There hasn't been any major study of environmental destruction in the country due to the nine-year-old insurgency, reports said. Nepalnews.com by Oct 27 04
