Trash Barriers Installed In Kathmandu Rivers To Boost Bagmati Clean-Up Efforts

In Kathmandu, Nepal, on February 24, 2026, trash barriers installed in rivers across Kathmandu are in operation as authorities step up efforts to collect floating waste. The barriers are designed to prevent plastic and other debris from drifting downstream and to allow for regular collection, supporting the ongoing Bagmati River clean-up campaign.
