The statement made by Infrastructure Development Minister Sunil Lamsal during an on-site inspection of the under-construction Nagdhunga-Mugling road project has become controversial.

His statement became controversial after he directed the contractor to find and bring him back to work even if it meant breaking his legs. During an inspection of the Mugling to Nagdhunga road section on Sunday, Minister Lamsal expressed his anger at the contractor who was delaying in removing the electricity pole on the road.

During the inspection, he gathered the Chief District Officer of Dhading, the Police Chief, and the Project Chief and other concerned officials and directed them to expedite the construction work. Giving the instructions, Minister Lamsal said, 'Where on earth is the contractor who moved the electricity pole? Find him and keep him here. If he doesn't work, don't break his legs, it's pointless.'

Stating that the local people also want the work to be done quickly, Minister Lamsal had instructed the concerned bodies to immediately determine how much facilitation is needed for the easy availability of materials required for moving electricity poles and road construction and complete the construction work on time.
