Bhaktapur, Dec 1: Women of
Sallaghari, Bhaktapur have conducted rituals (rudri, hawan and puja), wishing for road safety. The local women decided to conduct the
rituals with a belief that it would please those departed souls who were killed
in road accidents here and they would be blessed with road safety.
It may be noted that a total of
five people lost their lives to road accidents in the Sallaghari section of
Araniko Highway alone in the past three months.
Women here worshipped road as
per the rituals as the Sallaghari section continues to see road casualties
despite the launch of public awareness programmes
to that end, said Bhagiratha Sitauala,
Chairperson of local Janajagriti Women Group. RSS
