KMC starts removing illegal structures constructed on the banks of Bagmati River

KATHMANDU: The Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) has started removing structures constructed illegally on the banks of Bagmati River in Thapathali-11.

The High-Powered Committee for Integrated Development Committee of Bagmati Civilization had tried to remove the illegally-constructed structures on public land for the past many years, citing illegally constructed structures that have made Bagmati River polluted.

The Committee had started the campaign to remove such structures by issuing a notice in the month of January.  At that time, the activity to remove the illegal structure was stopped under the pressure of different groups.

But it has now started with the support of KMC, said Information Officer of the Committee, Kamal Aryal.

Structures including the priest building of Rudreshwor Mahadev, Om Shanti building as well as other structures have been removed. RSS
