Hospital construction site selected through voting

Kathmandu - Myagdi’s Raghuganga rural municipality has selected the site for a hospital construction through voting in its municipal assembly. The ninth municipal assembly held on Wednesday in Mauwafant decided to upgrade the health post based in ward-1 (Beg) to a 10-bed hospital through majority voting.

Voting was adopted as a measure to take decision on the construction of the hospital when the people’s representatives remained undecided about the construction site. Chief administrative officer Amrit Subedi shared that a majority of the assembly members decided to construct the hospital at Beg. It may be noted that the Ministry of Health and Population had also chosen Raghuganga-1, Beg under its ‘one local level, one hospital programme’.
