It connects Beni, the headquarters of Myagdi, through Mustang&#8217;s Jomsom to the Korala border point with China. The route carries trade and tourists heading to Jomsom and Muktinath, and it supplies remote settlements in Mustang. When the Kaligandaki River floods and damages the road, the disruption is felt well beyond the damaged stretch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_88 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/eve-construction.com\/%e0%a4%a8%e0%a5%87%e0%a4%aa%e0%a4%be%e0%a4%b2%e0%a5%80\/beni-jomsom-korala-road-drone-fuel-delivery\/#How_Beni-Jomsom-Korala_road_drone_fuel_delivery_helps_Mahabhir_Bhirkate_and_Pokharebagar\" >How Beni-Jomsom-Korala road drone fuel delivery helps Mahabhir, Bhirkate and Pokharebagar<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/eve-construction.com\/%e0%a4%a8%e0%a5%87%e0%a4%aa%e0%a4%be%e0%a4%b2%e0%a5%80\/beni-jomsom-korala-road-drone-fuel-delivery\/#What_happens_next_on_the_Beni-Jomsom-Korala_road\" >What happens next on the Beni-Jomsom-Korala road<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Beni-Jomsom-Korala_road_drone_fuel_delivery_helps_Mahabhir_Bhirkate_and_Pokharebagar\"><\/span>How Beni-Jomsom-Korala road drone fuel delivery helps Mahabhir, Bhirkate and Pokharebagar<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fuel supply has been one of the main bottlenecks in the reconstruction work. With the road blocked, tankers cannot reach the sites and heavy machinery runs dry. The minister said that with fuel supply eased, road construction and maintenance work underway in the Mahabhir, Bhirkate and Pokharebagar areas can now move ahead effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The operation is also a notable step for disaster response on Nepal&#8217;s mountain roads. Landslides and river floods routinely cut off road access in districts like Myagdi and Mustang, especially in the monsoon season and its aftermath, leaving equipment and materials stranded at damaged sites. Flying fuel to the work sites keeps reconstruction going while crews restore the road itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Beni-Jomsom-Korala road drone fuel delivery follows a string of <a href=\"https:\/\/eve-construction.com\/%e0%a4%a8%e0%a5%87%e0%a4%aa%e0%a4%be%e0%a4%b2%e0%a5%80\/betrawati-bailey-bridge-installation-rasuwa\/\">monsoon-season road disruptions<\/a> across the region. The ministry has been working through reopening several blocked routes ahead of Dashain, the country&#8217;s biggest festival, when travel demand is at its peak. Earlier this month, the ministry also <a href=\"https:\/\/eve-construction.com\/%e0%a4%a8%e0%a5%87%e0%a4%aa%e0%a4%be%e0%a4%b2%e0%a5%80\/beni-jomsom-road-reopen-dashain\/\">reopened the Beni-Jomsom section<\/a> for Dashain travellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_next_on_the_Beni-Jomsom-Korala_road\"><\/span>What happens next on the Beni-Jomsom-Korala road<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ministry&#8217;s immediate goal is to bring the Beni-Jomsom-Korala road back into operation as soon as possible. Continued drone-supported fuel supply, combined with earthmoving work at the damaged sections, will decide how quickly normal traffic resumes through the corridor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
