The 100-year-old Jairam (Praja) Chepang couple, who have been living in a very narrow shack where sunlight penetrates, have got a new house that is in good condition. They said they were shocked to find a new house with a toilet.

The family of Karn Gurung, who is living in America after moving to Pokhara, built a concrete house for the Jairam couple near Chapro. The newly built house built under the leadership of activist Rekha Lopchan Tamang in Raksirang rural municipality-5 Sachak tol of Makwanpur, was led by the Chepang couple to enter the house on Saturday.

Entering the room with a carpet on the floor and 2 beds with a bed, Jairam said with a smile on his face in Chepang language, "Kim Doti Aasteaya" (I am glad to be home).

vs. Born in 1981, wife Lakshmi Chepang, 10 years younger than Jairam, greeted everyone saying that she was able to live in a new house when she died. Jairam, who is hair-dressed, walks slowly. 90-year-old Lakshmi is a little more agile than him. She is the one who cooks at home. On Saturday, Jayaram, who was always being followed by the fourth, was beaten up by his neighbours. No, he wore a blue shirt that was open to cover the upper part of the body. 

Jairam was married to a woman even before Lakshmi. After having no children, the woman married another man from the village. After he left, he married Lakshmi at the age of 51. Jairam had no children from her either. Kokil Chepang, who is related to Chepang, has been taking care of this Chepang couple. The Chepang couple is running expenses from social security allowance. "The old age allowance has saved them," said the neighbor Nar Bahadur Chepang, "Kokil Chepang has done a great job in the past." Drinking water taps and concrete toilets have also been constructed. Actor Lopchan Tamang has provided them with cash of 242,000 rupees for additional expenses. In this settlement, which is reached by walking from Manhari Bazar, which is only inhabited by the Chepang community, it takes 2 hours, but the buildings are under construction under the government's Janata Awas program, but they were excluded from the program because they did not own the land in their name.
