Kathmandu. On June 24th, due to the devastating flood in China's Lhende river, the Mitteri bridge at the Kerung crossing was swept away, and the transportation of goods between Nepal and China has been completely blocked for four months. After the flood caused damage to a large number of trucks and containers along with people's property, the Federation of Nepal Truck Transport Businessmen has sent a letter to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Wednesday, asking them to take immediate action.
