32 June, Hetaunda. Locals have built more than 5 kilometers of roads by raising donations in Kailash Rural Municipality of Makwanpur. Kailash-4 Garkhal, Champakhani Deurali Road has become a dynamic example of how a village can be built when the community comes together.
Kailash-4, which is geographically difficult, is located in Champakhani, Dhusrang and Tamang and Chepang communities of 44 local communities, and the result of a month’s hard work and the cash collected by 44 locals has been built with 2 and a half kilometers of new tracks.
Ward No.-3 of Raksirang Rural Municipality through Lavati, Ward No.-4 of Kailash Rural Municipality, Garkhal, Champakhani Deurali Road has been connected, now it has become easy for the village produce market and transportation of necessary materials from the market to the village.
5 km of rural road at a cost of 11 lakh 9 thousand 670 rupees with donations of 2 lakh 75 thousand, 1 hundred rupees from the locals, 5 lakh 72 thousand 970 from the local Deurali community organization, 2 lakh 61 thousand 600 donations, 2 lakh 61 thousand 600 has been built.
Kailash Rural Municipality has received 500 liters of diesel, 14 hours of breaker machine from Laliguran Cement Industry and 13 hours of machine support from Raksirang Rural Municipality.
It is said that even though the locals requested the three levels of government to allocate budget for road construction, the budget was not available, so the road was built by raising donations. Tank Moktan, the outgoing chairman of Kailash rural municipality, said that the road was built in the village with donations and labor.
Locals started the work from May 18 and completed the road construction work by May 20. Nivartaman Rural Municipality said that since the locals have attached the dream of development and prosperity to the construction of new roads and opened new tracks, the support of all levels of the government is necessary in the future.
This rural road, which was constructed during the famine in backward settlements, has been inaugurated. ‘We have repeatedly asked the local and state governments to arrange the necessary budget for digging the road. But our voice was not heard,’ said Keshav Muktan, a local who led the construction of the road.
A small gathering in the village under the leadership of Moktan decided to build the road with the funds collected through donations.
“How many days will it take to dig the road, we started collecting donations saying that we will not take a break until the work is completed,” he said. He said that some people helped for the transportation.
Nimraj Chepang, a member of Ward No. 4, said that they were sad that their demand for road construction was not heard. Ramsin Thing, president of the local Deurali community organization, which donated 572,960 rupees for the construction of the road, says that the people of the village have been able to make proper use of the money they collected.
According to Thing, 24 members of this organization are collecting fifty rupees a month. He said that the organization is spending on such essential support work.
Bishnuram Chepang, who led the construction of rural roads, said that he was very happy that in the days to come, patients and pregnant women of Chepang and Tamang settlements could be taken to the hospital through transport.
Babulal Syangtan, former ward president of the neighboring municipality Raksirang-3, says that the lifestyle of the villagers will change in the coming days after the development. ‘The bay leaves, greens, and squash here do not have to be wasted anymore, putting them in the cart and sending them to the market brings money to the village. People here will earn money now.
You can see a change in their standard of living now,’ he said, while in the past it cost 5,000 to buy a sack of rice, now it will cost half of that, i.e. 2,500, so there will be many benefits from road construction.
