To prevent the floating trash from the Bagmati River, the Bagmati Civilization Integrated Development Committee has put up trash barriers in six locations across the Bagmati River. Constructed for Rs 6.5 million, these trash barriers prevent the entrance of trash like plastics, bottles, and any other material into the water without obstructing the flow of the river. According to the authorities, this would make the process of trash collection smoother and cleaner in the rivers of Kathmandu Valley.
