Panic gripped the local people of Tarebhir cliff, situated in the northeast of Kathmandu near Gokarna forest after a huge rock fell from a hill on the roadside near the human settlement.
Parliament member Rameshwor Fuyal has asked the government to relocate people in the area to a safer place.
People fear that the broken rocks above the settlement area on the cliff might cause disaster in the area.
