Kul Man Ghising blames bureaucracy for slow progress in power line projects

Nepal Electricity Authority accuses forest authorities of hindering the New Butwal-Bardaghat Transmission project.

The Department of Forests in May agreed to give permission to the New Butwal-Bardaghat Transmission Line Project Office to cut 5,822 trees inside national and community forests in Nawalparasi (Susta West). The department’s move was in line with a Cabinet decision of December last year.
