The government has taken various measures to manage the displaced squatters along with the campaign to remove unauthorized settlements on the banks of the river in the capital.
According to Prime Minister Balendra Shah's secretariat, the campaign has been launched in Thapathali, Gairigaun and Manohara areas with the main objective of returning public lands and separating 'real' and 'fake' squatters.
According to the government's statement, it has been confirmed that many people living in those settlements have houses and properties elsewhere.
On this basis, the government has said that it will not give any option to 'fake' characters who have properties elsewhere but occupy public land in the name of squatters and is preparing to make their details public. In the upcoming process, a detailed profile will be prepared by keeping the details of each person in a digital system.
Arrangements for rehabilitation in five places
The government has stated that it will arrange for rehabilitation in five places for the real landless squatters. 42 housing units have been prepared in Ichangu, Nagarjuna, while Satsang Bhawan in Kirtipur, the Agricultural Development Bank training center in Bode, Bhaktapur, and government buildings and vacant land in Kharipati and Chandbagh have been put forward as alternatives.
Along with the settlement removal, the government claims that immediate relief arrangements have been made for the affected people. Those who are being relocated will be provided with food packets for today and tomorrow. The government claims that water, electricity and toilets have been arranged in the places selected for rehabilitation.
The government has stated that it is preparing to manage the actual squatters by utilizing the structures built earlier.
