Standing on the Pasang Lhamu (Betrawati–Rasuwagadhi) highway; the main China–Nepal trade route—Saloni reports the road is completely severed, with sections washed away and a boundary pillar left isolated by mudslides. Locals say the entire area beyond the Trishuli/Bhotekoshi river was once filled with houses and neighbourhoods; now only one or two buildings remain, the rest swept away or submerged under debris and silt. Authorities estimate about 42 km of this highway and dozens of bridges have been destroyed, cutting off Rasuwa district and forcing reliance on helicopters for rescue and relief.
