Phalebas (Parbat), April 9: The people of Chanaute of Durlung in Kushma Municipality, Parbat have restored the local drinking project that was damaged by the last year’s earthquake on their own efforts.

They provided voluntary labour and monetary donations to repair the project after their repeated calls to the local bodies for help to restore the project were turned into deaf ears.

We visited the District Development Committee and Kushma Municipality many times with formal requests to take initiation to repair the damaged water project, but in vain, said a local Tek Bahadur Gurung.

Sixty families in the village contributed Rs 830 each to manage funds to repair the project. The Chanaute folks were deprived of safe drinking water for around a year and had to use alternative but unsafe sources of water in the absence of timely maintenance of the damaged water project. RSS
