KATHMANDU, Dec 12: The Thamel Tourism Development Council (TTDC) has started cutting the internet wires that are scattered haphazardly within the tourist destination to make the area clean and orderly.
Sahadev Dhamala, vice president of the TTDC, said the cutting of the wires was started because the beauty of Thamel was affected due to the haphazardly-placed wires and cables. "We have started cutting the wires hanging on the electricity poles in Thamel for four days, in collaboration with various internet provider companies," he said.
