The work of ``People's irrigation canal project'' under construction in Diprung Chuichumma Rural Municipality of Khotang, which is being built at a cost of more than 10 crores, has been stopped again. The last time the work was stopped after a week. This year, the locals stopped the work saying that the work was not done according to the action plan.

On June 23, 2076, Sky-Vivash-Ramsagar JV started the construction by signing an agreement with the Ministry of Water Supply, Irrigation and Energy of the Kosi State Government to be completed by January 23, 2078. But after the work started, after repeated disputes, the construction period is not only over, the company is repeatedly extending the deadline .

Last November 7, there was a dispute between the locals and the construction company over the construction of the bridge. At that time, after the discussion of the locals, people's representatives and the construction company, its work was started on the 7th of January. Village Chairman Lokendra Rai said, "The locals have stopped the work because it is against the estimate." The locals have said that all the pipes placed in the village should be delivered, but the construction company has been saying that it is not possible to do so. Sagar Luintel, the representative of the

construction company, said that it was not possible to proceed with the work according to the demands of the locals. He said, "It is not possible to bury all the pipes in a place like a mountain, there are places that are high and places that are low". Therefore, it is not possible to do as the locals say.'
Mahesh Yadav, Chief Engineer of Irrigation Division Office, Khotang, said that due to the obstacles of the locals, the plan was not being carried out and the deadline was being extended time and again. He said that the deadline was extended on June 23, 2079 until June 21, 2080, and last time the deadline was extended until Chait 16, 2081. Due to repeated extensions, its cost has reached 100.9 million 13 thousand . Yadav said, "Despite the repeated extension of the deadline, the physical progress of the project is 70 percent and the financial progress is 68.67 percent."
