The BP Highway or NH13 (previously: H06) is a highway in eastern Nepal that links Kathmandu Valley with the Eastern Terai region. It is named after the former leader of Nepal, BP Koirala. This highway is the shortest link between Kathmandu valley and the Madhesh Province that connects the Koshi Province with the capital of Nepal. Construction of the highway began in 1996 and after encountering different issues with materials, manpower and budget, the road was finally completed and handed over to the Nepalese government on 3 July 2015.^[1]^[2]
