“We could not demonstrate the outcome due to the large number of partners in development management and the duplication in works,” CEO Tamang said, stressing on the integrated development model for the development of the Kathmandu Valley. Chief of KMC’s Physical Infrastructure and Construction Department, Dr Uttar Kumar Regmi said public participation-oriented programmes have not been run in the inner Wards of the metropolis whereas projects worth more than Rs 80 million and based on public participation were being run in the remaining Wards. Chief of the Heritage and Tourism Development Archana Shrestha informed that Rs 110 million has been allocated in the current fiscal year for carrying out works on the construction and repair of cultural heritages.
