Locals of Biratnagar Metropolitan City staged a protest on the road demanding the construction of the postal route of the Keshalia Road in wards 6 and 11 of the city on December 8. They accused the government for the delay in construction of the road ignoring the fact that the city has the highest number of citizens.

They carried banners with slogans like "Abandoned Keshilya Road". They have repeatedly called the attention of the metropolitan government, the state government and the federal government but no one has paid any attention to them so far.
