A blue flag has been hung in the yard of Biratnagar Metropolitan City. Metropolitan Deputy Chief Shilpa Nirala Karki is dealing with common people's cases within Tripal.

As the head of the judicial committee, she participated in hearings on three different cases on Wednesday. Until a few days ago, the bench of the metropolis was grand, almost like a 'mini court'. But after the demonstration on 24th of August, after the arson, vandalism and looting of the entire metropolitan office, now the metropolis is operating the service in a difficult situation . "After the destruction of the office, we are working even in the midst of such sorrow so that the service to the common people should not be stopped," Deputy Chief Nirala said, "No work of the customer has been stopped, nor will it be stopped." Law, health, revenue, planning, sanitation and other branches are working in the broken rooms with chairs and tables. According to Ankit Bhattarai, engineer of the planning branch, all the files related to the plan have been burnt and destroyed. "Now there is confusion on how to make the payment," he said.

During the demonstration on 24 August, 13 out of 19 ward offices, including the metropolitan office, were damaged. Deputy Chief Nirala informed that the details of the damage are being compiled and will be made public soon. "There is no way to estimate the damage," she said, "There is an unexpected damage." According to her, even though the entire building was destroyed due to fire, there is no need to put a 'red sticker' on it. The expert team of Manmohan Technical University has tested the building and concluded that it can be used after repair.

What is the status of the other metropolis?
