Bijalpura, Nepal

Bijalpura is a town in southern Nepal, near the border with India.

Geography

It is situated near the plains rather than in the foothills or mountains of Nepal.

Transport

The town was served by a branchline of Nepal Railways, which because of the terrain, only reaches the outskirts of the town. It is not served at the moment (2009) as a bridge is damaged.[1] This line was proposed to be converted in 2008 from narrow gauge to broad gauge. The line is also to be extended to Bardibas.
