Communication and Information Technology Minister and Government Spokesperson Prithvisubba Gurung laid the foundation stone of 2 roads in Lamjung when he was the Chief Minister of Gandaki Province. The foundation stone of Baglungpani-Ghalegaon-Bhujung road was laid on 10th January 2076 and on 23rd November 2077, Udipur-Ritthebagar-Dordi road was laid.
Baglungpani-Ghalegaon road needs to be blacked for 10 km, but only 4 km has been blacked. Of the 7 kilometers that need to be paved, only about 3 kilometers have been paved, including the slope of the road connecting the ropes. The black paper work of both roads, which should be completed within 2 years from the agreement, has not been completed even after 5 years, and the contract has been extended. The deadline has been extended 3 times for the road towards Ghalegaon-Bhujung. The deadline for the road towards Dordi has been extended for the sixth time. It is doubtful that the work will be completed even in the extended deadline.
These two roads are just examples. There are also roads that have been graveled only in the current financial year after the deadline has been extended for the fourth time. The gravelling of 8 km of Geelung-Taksar, Mantri Gurung's village, has just been completed in 6 years after 4 extensions. The road connecting Ghalegaon-Bhujung also falls within his municipality. There are many other examples of roads that only extend the deadline and cannot be completed on time.
Purna Bahadur Tamang, the construction businessman who is in charge of paving and graveling the road towards Ghalegaon-Bhujung, is in Parliament. Congress leader Tamang, who is a member of the House of Representatives from Ramechhap, has also held the responsibility of Minister of State for Energy, Water Resources and Irrigation. His company Kancharam-Nana JV had signed a contract for 2 years on 30th October 2016 to blacktop 10 km road to Ghalegaon and 7 km road gravel from Ghalegaon to Bhujung. Minister Gurung had also warned MP Tamang that he would protest in parliament by name. Coincidentally, now both parties are in the government . On the other hand, the black sheet and gravel work of the road is still pending. According to the
agreement, the road construction work was completed by October 29, 1978, and the deadline was extended for the first time until October 28, 1979. After the work was not completed, the deadline was extended for the second time until 28 October 2018. It didn't work at this time either. Again, the deadline has been extended for the third time till 30th of Chait 082.
The black paper work which started from Kholasothar Rural Municipality-1 Baglangpani has reached the intersection going to Maling and Ghalegaon. After that, 200 meters ahead, it has been left with a one-way black sheet . Surya Prasad Gurung, chairman of Kholasothar Rural Municipality, claims that he is taking initiatives for the speedy construction of the road. Recently, the work has progressed. We are hesitating . Sometimes it was seen that the builder delayed. When payment is not made, it seems that there is a delay . We are trying," he said.
