Stranded passengers face perilous conditions on the flood-ravaged BP Highway, navigating knee-deep mud and blocked roads due to landslides.
Many, like Rabina Kumari Sah, have walked for hours to reach safety after being caught in the devastation caused by heavy rains and the swollen Roshi River.
Sah recounted a harrowing journey, stating she walked for 16 hours after being stranded at Mangaltar, highlighting the challenges around 2,500 stranded travellers faced.
