After almost eight years, the Tatopani border point is set to re-open for people’s movement from Friday after reopening two-way cargo movement in May this year. Although the two-way cargo movement resumed four months ago, the border has remained inaccessible to the general public for the past eight years. Chief District Officer Ramesh Neupane said the Chinese authority has informed that the border crossing would be accessible to the public starting from Friday, September 1.
Nepal-China trade via the Tatopani border point in the Sindhupalchok district has been obstructed for the past two weeks as the road damaged by floods and landslides has not been cleared yet.
