कान्तिपथ


Province 1 minister for transport management and communications Upendra Prasad Ghimire has pledged to bring uniformity in the traffic management in the province.In his address to a discussion session on ‘traffic management’ organised by the District Administration Office, Morang here today, the minister said an online service for transportation issues would be launched from coming mid-March. He took time to insist on the contribution of all for the effective traffic management and thus reducing road accidents.


As he briefed the programme, efforts were underway to ensure provisions for spending revenue from the province traffic service sector within the province itself. He pledged to address the demands of the traffic police as well.


Transport management and communications Secretary Jay Kumar Ghimire claimed the province government was working responsibly to patch up issues in the traffic management while Chief District Officer Kashiraj Dahal explained that the ongoing road widening drive and the increasing traffic flow in narrow roads had posed challenges to the traffic management efforts. Insisting on traffic disciplines and road safety to minimise the cases of road accidents, he was of the view of spending traffic revenue in the safety of citizens.


According to the district traffic police chief Chandra Khadka, they had been facing a shortage of human resources for the traffic management in the district.


Last year, the revenue collection from the traffic service sector in the district was Rs 42 million and the collection so far in the current fiscal has reached 27.1 million. The district traffic police has just one Breathalyzer and has no speedometer, according to Khadka. The office building is in dire need of renovation, he said.
