Govt’s unfulfilled promises leave Tarai’s most vulnerable without rooves over their head

The past year has been tough for Brihaspatiya Sada Musahar who lives in the Musahar Basti in Bhangaha municipality -3. Brihaspatiya Sada lives with his wife, daughter, pregnant daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren. Whenever it rains, his roof leaks water, which has created trouble in his life.

His family is suffering due to the unfulfilled promise of the government. In 2017, the government under the Public Housing Program pledged to build a cemented house and asked the family to demolish their shack made out of straw and hay.
