Tulsipur Water Project Faces Six-Month Delay

Dang. Tulsipur Water Consumers and Sanitation Committee, which started three years ago with the objective of distributing clean, pure water easily to the residents of Tulsipur municipality, has announced that the project to bring water from the Babai River to Tulsipur through lifting will take an additional six months to be successful. The project was initiated under co-investment.

Although the infrastructure construction of the project has reached the final stage, the committee chairman Yamakanta Bhandari informed that it will take an additional six months as the electricity connection and home connection works are still pending. According to him, the delay occurred because the contractor who was awarded the construction work in the latest phase stopped working, citing an increase in the price of construction materials.
