Nepal has banned all vehicle traffic entering and leaving the Kathmandu Valley for three days, starting on Saturday, due to severe rainfall and landslides. The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority announced the restriction will remain in effect through Monday, affecting thousands of residents returning from Dashain celebrations in their hometowns. The timing disrupts the typical post-festival migration pattern when people travel back to the capital after observing the major Hindu holiday.

Long-distance travel has been prohibited across five of Nepal's seven provinces—Koshi, Madhesh, Bagmati, Gandaki, and Lumbini—due to flooding and landslide dangers. Major highways remain blocked, including the Prithvi Highway and routes to the Chinese border. The Department of Hydrology and Meteorology forecasts continued cloudy conditions with moderate rainfall and thunderstorms across hilly and lowland areas in affected provinces.
