Myagdi District Launches Door-to-Door Passport Delivery Service

Myagdi. Passport delivery service has been initiated directly to the doorsteps of service seekers in Myagdi. The District Administration Office has begun providing passports through postal service employees.

Chief District Officer Rabindra Acharya stated that this initiative implements point number 27 of the government's 100-point governance reform plan, which mandates the delivery of passports to citizens' homes.

“In accordance with the government's policy to provide public services at home, we commenced this work on Wednesday,” he said. “We will continue the process of delivering passports through the postal office.”

On the first day, passports were delivered to four individuals in Beni Municipality-2 and two in Ward Number 6, according to CDO Acharya. The service was inaugurated at the residence of Saraswati Ghimire Thapa in Bimirabot, Jyamarukkot, Beni Municipality-2, where CDO Acharya, District Postal Office Chief Ramesh Thapa, and Ward Chairman Yam Bahadur Karki handed over the documents.

Similarly, Krisha Thapa Chhetri, Saraswati Ghimire Thapa, Kiyan Thapa Chhetri, and Karishma Thapa Chhetri received their passports at their own homes. Previously, residents were compelled to travel to the district headquarters in Beni to collect their passports; this new system is expected to save both time and money for the service seekers.

Service recipients expressed great satisfaction upon receiving their passports at home. Saraswati remarked, “Previously, traveling to Beni for a passport cost a full day and transportation fare. Now that the service has reached our doorstep, both problems are resolved. My trust in the government has grown. We expect this service to make public service delivery more convenient, effective, and citizen-friendly.”
