Karnali Province Chief Minister Yamlal Kandel has inaugurated the Bailey Bridge connecting the district hospital.
The bridge, built on the Thuliveri River with the budget of the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure of the Karnali Province Government, was inaugurated by Chief Minister Kandel.
Chief Minister Kandel said that development can only be achieved through positive thinking and collective efforts. Stating that the budget alone will not suffice, he said that everyone should make efforts from their own side.
Similarly, the Minister for Physical Infrastructure and Urban Development of the province, Sher Bahadur Budha, said that after the construction of the Bailey Bridge, it will be easier for tourists to reach not only the hospital but also Phoksundo Lake.
The bridge, built at a cost of 41.7 million, is the longest Bailey Bridge in the district and it connects the road from the district hospital to the helipad, said Tek Hitan, Chief of the Physical Infrastructure Office, Dolpa.
Redark Nepal has taken over the responsibility of the construction. The work was completed within five and a half months of starting the work. ‘This bridge has become an example that a lot of work can be done in a short time if there is interest, coordination and proactivity of the office,’ he said.
The district hospital, which used to be inaccessible due to the lack of a bridge and a motorable road to the district headquarters, will now be accessible, said Dr. Sizan Rawal, Chief of the Health Service Office, Dolpa.
Similarly, Chief Minister Kandel today inaugurated the statue of the late Captain Dinesh Neupane. The statue of Neupane has been erected at the entrance of the district headquarters, Dunai.
He saved the lives of nine passengers in the Kasthamandap Air plane crash in Kalikot in 2072 BS, even though he himself died.
