According to the data collected by the provincial government, 66 four-wheeled vehicles and 100 two-wheeled vehicles were damaged. According to the initial assessment report of the damage to vehicles and goods, the Office of the Chief Minister and Council of Ministers has stated that the damage is estimated at 506.324 crore. ‘The damage to buildings is not included in this,’ said Prayagraj Khanal, the Chief Minister’s Principal Personal Secretary. ‘Preparations are being made to move the ministries to other buildings as the damage to the buildings of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Physical Infrastructure is so severe that it is uninhabitable.’
According to the report, the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure Development has suffered the most damage. Apart from the building, it is estimated that 105.746 crore has been damaged in that ministry. The damage to vehicles in the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure has also been the most extensive.

After the ministry building was set on fire and rendered unusable, the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure has begun moving the office to a recently constructed building for the Mohana Irrigation Project under the same ministry. According to ministry employees, the work of moving documents remaining in the old building and setting up new furniture has begun since Tuesday, said Mekhraj Jaishi, deputy secretary of the ministry.
After the building of the Ministry of Economic Affairs has also become unusable, it is being moved to the recently constructed Underground Water Resources and Irrigation Division Office under the Ministry of Physical Infrastructure Development. 'Only the building was ready. The work of moving our ministry has begun after preparing the internal works,' said Suraj Shrestha, an official at the ministry.
The Office of the Chief Minister and Council of Ministers, the Ministry of Social Development, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Law, the Ministry of Land Management, Agriculture and Cooperatives, and the Ministry of Industry, Tourism, Forest and Environment are undergoing renovation work in their old buildings. The building of the Ministry of Industry, Tourism, Forest and Environment was only vandalized.
As of Tuesday, employees of none of the ministries have returned to normal. Although all employees are present, employees of the ministries concerned say that the working environment has not been created due to lack of infrastructure. ‘Work is being done from the district offices under the ministry, the working environment has not yet been created in the ministries,’ said Prayagraj Khanal, the Chief Minister’s Chief Personal Secretary.
