Kathmandu, June 9: The Naya Shakti Nepal has accused the government of taking a wrong decision on development of the Budhigandaki Hydropower Project, the project of national pride.
At a news conference organized by the Naya Shakti Nepal on Thursday, the party has expressed its concern for awarding the Budhigandaki Hydropower Project to a Chinese company without a competitive bid.
On the occasion, party’s coordinator Dr Baburam Bhattarai said that the government deal to provide the responsibility for the project development to China’s Gejuwa Group of Company was not in the interest of the affected communities.
Dr Bhattarai said that international competition should be conducted to develop the reservoir-based project in a cheaper way. He also said that the state itself should be more active in the development of the reservoir-based project adding that development of such a project was not only costlier but also challenging in terms of social and environmental point of view.
