Snow Cleared on Road to Remote Mustang Polling Station Ahead of By-Election

Key Points

• Snow clearing began on the road to Sanga Polling Center in Baragung Muktichhetra-5, Mustang for the upcoming by-election.
• The road had been blocked by snowfall since Kartik 10, preventing vehicle movement.
• Sanga village, at 4,500 meters altitude, is remote and was largely evacuated due to winter cold.
• Residents usually return in Chaitra/Baishakh but must return before Falgun 21 to vote in the election.
• The District Security Committee’s monitoring of the polling center was hindered by the blocked road due to snow.
