The time period has been extended after the detailed damage assessment (DDA) of the Jajarkot earthquake has not been completed in a month. 15 months after the earthquake, in the first week of February, the government started DDA by deputing 50 technicians in Jajarkot and 40 technicians in Rukum West, but after the work was not completed, the time was extended by one month.

Due to the lack of DDA, the earthquake victims are still living in temporary shelters. The distribution of the second installment of funds for the construction of temporary housing has not yet been completed . After the government announced to give two installments at the rate of 25,000, the victim built temporary housing.

40 thousand 41 beneficiaries have been established in Jajarkot and 34 thousand 997 beneficiaries in Rukum West after the earthquake on October 17 last year. Only 25,000 beneficiaries in Jajarkot and 26,000 beneficiaries in Rukum West have received the second installment of temporary housing. Bir Bahadur Giri, Chairman of Barekot Rural Municipality of Jajarkot, said that the budget will not be rebuilt even in the next 2 years if the temporary housing is delayed.

According to Giri, the chairman of the municipality, the reconstruction is ready to start after the completion of the DDA. "Due to procedural difficulties, it was seen that the reconstruction will start during the rainy season," he said, "There is also a shortage of manpower to build permanent housing." "DDA has not been completed in most of the wards, it would have been easier to establish the beneficiaries and ask for the budget," he said. After that, the District Disaster Management Committee will make a decision and send the required funds to the Disaster Management Authority and the budget release process will begin. Mangarati said that it will take at least one and a half months to complete all these processes.

The federal government has allocated 21 billion rupees for reconstruction in the budget of the current financial year. According to Dijan Bhattarai, spokesperson of the National Disaster Mitigation and Management Agency, the Ministry of Finance has sent 3 billion 15 million rupees to the authority's account in the first phase for reconstruction. According to the authority, 76,000 individual houses and about 600 public structures have been damaged in Jajarkot, Rukum West and Salyan due to the earthquake.

Bal Bahadur Vick of Saniveri-3 in Rukum West said that the victims, who spent the second winter in the tower as well, will have to stay in the tower during the coming winter. "The suffering of cold is just ending, we have to spend another winter in a leaky roof," he said, "How much more suffering will we have to suffer until a permanent house is built?" According to him, in some places the houses with minor damage have been demolished, some have built houses themselves.

"Due to the lack of fixed standards, there was a problem in the classification of damage," BC said, "There is a delay in DDA because the damage of 3/4 families in one house has to be assessed and the details have to be entered." According to him, it takes 1 to 3 hours to do DDA in one house.

The temporary housing construction subsidy procedure for earthquake-affected families has arranged to give 4 lakh rupees per family for reconstruction.

"If the federal government had started the process from the beginning of the current financial year, some of the earthquake victims would have been able to move to permanent housing," said Birkh Bahadur Bista, Chairman of Saniveri Rural Municipality in Rukum West. Pushpa Badi said that it is necessary to prepare skilled manpower as it is seen that reconstruction will take place at once .
