Kathmandu, Feb 7 : The Ministry of Land Management,
Cooperative and Poverty Alleviation has suggested the local governments for the
classification of land at the earliest possible time.
The Ministry made such appeal to
the local governments as sales and rights ownership of land has not taken place
for lack of land classification.
Ministry’s secretary Dr Damodar
Regmi said that planned development would be expedited and citizens’ challenges
would be resolved soon after the land classification.
The land revenue offices and survey
offices have been cooperating with the local governments through technical
expertise and others assistance. “Most of the issues and grievances would be
resolved if the local governments classify the land sooner. The survey and land
revenue offices have been directed to make technical assistance,” Dr Regmi
added.
The Ministry is of the view that
development of physical infrastructure has suffered while the road networks are
mismanaged, and the cultivable lands are shrinking for delayed land
classification. (RSS)
