Authorities have reached an agreement to remove houses in the Bhaluwa area of Kerabari Rural Municipality along the Morang section of the Madan Bhandari Highway. The highway, a National Pride Project intended as an alternative to the East–West Highway, has faced repeated delays. Construction has been hindered in various sections due to forest clearance issues, roadside settlements, and land ownership complications. In Morang, progress was expected after trees were felled across 20.94 hectares of forest land along a 9.42-kilometre stretch, but housing relocation remained a major obstacle until now.
