Kavre DCC distributes Rs 20 million each to local level

Kavrepalanchowk–Kavre District Coordination Committee has distributed Rs 20 million each to the local levels. The budget was distributed to support the purpose of constructing administrative building in the fiscal year. The amount was allocated from the internal fund (Rs 430 million) of the then District Development Committee.

The DCC has allocated Rs 40 million for its building construction while Rs 260 millions were set aside for 13 local levels of the district. "Some rural municipalities may need extra support than the allocated amount of Rs 20 million. Municipalities having buildings would construct other needy infrastructures", Udhab KC, Kavre DCC chief.

Seven rural municipalities of the district do not have their own administrative buildings. Mandandeupur among six municipalities also does not have its own building.

Some rural municipalities are in rented house while some have developed makeshift structures. In absence of own building, it has been a tough time for local levels to deliver public services, KC said, adding the budget therefore was allocated to support building construction.
