Bhojpur. A new administrative building is set to be constructed for the Temkemaiyung Rural Municipality in Bhojpur. The construction process has been initiated with the objective of making the rural municipality's administrative operations easier, faster, and more effective.

This will directly benefit the citizens.” He expressed gratitude to the local residents who provided land for the building construction for free or at a subsidized rate, mentioning that their support has added positive energy to development and construction.
