After the Social Welfare Council locked the stalls and offices of the Bhrikutimandap complex that had not paid rent, businessmen have demanded that they be allowed to pay rent in installments.
The council had locked 20 stalls and offices on 30 Chaitra due to non-payment of rent for a long time. After that, the concerned businessmen and organizations submitted a request to make arrangements to allow them to pay in installments, informed Khagnath Regmi, head of the council's management department.
After the lock, stall number 54 has paid the full rent. Five other organizations have paid partial rent. ‘Some have started paying the amount, but the number of those who have paid is not large,’ Regmi said. ‘Discussions are underway on whether to allow partial rent payments or to open the locks only after full payment.’
According to him, the businessmen have applied, stating that it is difficult to pay a large amount in one go and demanding installment facilities. The council, on the other hand, has been prioritizing the collection of arrears. The council says that the locks were forced after repeated requests and the rent did not rise. Currently, the council has not made a formal decision on whether to arrange for installments after internal discussions on the applications received.
