The 200-year-old Laxminarayan Pati Museum (Dharamshala) located in Rampur Municipality-4, Khoptar is registered in the name of a person. Under the private trust, the Regmi family here set up a private trust in 1879 BS. But around 2052/53 BS, a Lalpurja was created in the name of Shivakanti Dotel.
About 17 ropanis of land are registered in the name of Dotel. Out of that, 10 ropanis are in the Dharamshala area. Buddhasaprakash Regmi, the chairman of the Laxminarayan Guthi Operation Committee, said that the Dharamshala Archaeological Department has also reconstructed the land in an area of three ropanis. ‘It was discovered late that the Lalpurja was in the name of the person,’ said Chairman Regmi, ‘Now we have registered a case with the CIAA. We are surprised how the Lalpurja was created.’
Dotel has left an additional 7 ropanis of land under tenant rights. But the problem arose because all the Pauwa were seen in the Lalpurja. Generations of the Dotel family had been taking care of the Dharamshala. The Regmi family has a private Guthi of 2,100 ropanis of land in the Khoptar, Kansajari, Bahkhola, and Gijindanda areas of the Rampur area. This Dharamshala was reconstructed in 2080 BS.
It was reconstructed at a cost of about 37.4 million at the special initiative of the Department of Archaeology. The old Dharamshala had three floors, including the ground floor, and six rooms, one on each side of the right and left. The roof is of thatch. It has been reconstructed in the same form. According to Regmi, the chairman of the Laxminarayan Guthi Operating Committee, the building was built using valuable wooden materials that reflect its ancient history.
After the construction of the building was completed, it was developed as a museum. The old wooden objects that were previously used in the village are being preserved and kept in the museum. In 1879 BS, Tulsiram Regmi, a social worker from Rampur, built the Guthi. The Guthi was arranged for the purpose of providing shelter for the arrival of distinguished people as well as for travelers. It was dilapidated after the 2072 earthquake damaged it. This Dharamshala has been operated only by members of the Regmi family.
