More than 800 homes under People’s Housing Programme still incomplete

Around 5,000 families in Rautahat have been affected by the delay. Officials say they lack funds to finish the homes.

Jhagaru Musahar of the Musahar settlement in Dumariya, Rautahat, had happily dismantled his thatched-roof house some 10 months ago after the government authorities assured him to make a concrete house under the People’s Housing Programme.
