The Minister said there would be no budget to construct view -tower and meeting halls next fiscal year as a modality of operation of such structures was missing and it would cause unlimited responsibility on the part of the government, contributing nothing to the improvement of people’s livelihood. The Minister, however, insisted on completing the ongoing projects relating to the construction of 32 meeting halls with priority. Besides, as the Minister said, the government will replace the integrated settlement development programme with a new programme for the settlement development. ” The integrated settlement development programme has turned ineffective in hilly and mountainous areas. And in case of the Kathmandu Valley and the Terai, land crisis is the issue for its implementation.” Write your comments RELATED NEWS Home Minister responds to criticism over rescue Home Minister Says hope remains after tunnel rescues PM Shah and Australian counterpart discuss flood rescue efforts Mustang customs office struggles without permanent infrastructure 15 militants trying to infiltrate through Afghanistan border killed: Pakistan… Lawmaker faces voters’ anger over flood response Top Headlines Monsoon is predictable and Nepal’s disaster response should be too1 Nepal “a Buffer State”: Rethinking foreign policy in relative terms2 Promotion Linked to Future Military Leadership: Major General Magar Could Become Army Chief3 When the State Pulls the Trigger, Who Answers ?4 Before the Ballots: How Oli Lost the Political Narrative5 Nepal’s Political Renaissance: The rise of the RSP, the re-ordering of the old political order and the political path forward6 Balen’s Silence Has Invited Curiosity, Confusion, and Concerns7 Jagdamba Group Chairman Shankar Agrawal Arrested8 TRENDING Once on the Margins, Women Diplomats Are Now Making Their Mark in Nepal’s Foreign Service Sector Pathao, Tootle resume ride sharing services after authorities relax lockdown What Makes Prithivi Narayan Shah a Philosopher and a Truly Democratic King?
