INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:

Ramechhap, August 2 Elected representatives of the executive of Ramechhap Likhu Rural Municipality, including its vice-chairperson, today

filed an application with the district administration office seeking security. The rural municipality Vice-chair Dipshikha Dahal, Chief

Administrative Officer Bhupendra Rai, Ward Chair Subas Bohora and other members of the executive of the local body, sought security, saying

they were insecure from the rural municipality Chair Govind Bahadur Khadka. At a meeting of the executive of the local body yesterday, the

RM chair had tried to attack vice-chair and other members when they rejected his proposal to allocate additional fund for electrification in

Duragaun. &After the RM chair proposed to allocate a whopping 120 million rupees for electrification under the Bright Likhu Programme this

year, we rejected the plan citing lack of transparency in the expenditure of last year budget, and soon after this he tried to assault us

with a chair,& said Dahal, adding last fiscal budget of Rs 200,000 under the same heading was spent without keeping any records or following

any due process. The RM chair tired to defend himself saying some anti-development elements were trying to foil his initiative. The post
