Dozens of passengers have been left stranded at Rara Airport in Mugu for the past four days after flights from the airport could not take off due to bad weather.
The passengers who had booked flights from Surkhet and Nepalgunj to Mugu and vice-versa have been left stranded as the only airport in the region that used to see four to six flights daily, has remained defunct due to the adverse weather condition triggered by monsoon rains.
Likewise, the disruption of the flights has increased the woes of people trying to get to Nepalgunj for medical treatment.
Meanwhile, some flight passengers have opted to travel by road to Nepalgunj following the delay.
