Service recipients have been seriously impacted as the building of the Rolpa District Hospital has yet to be completed despite the delay of 15 months.

The construction of a building that was supposed to be finished by mid-July 2020.

Local stakeholders have alleged that the building was not constructed due to sheer negligence of the contractor.

Chairperson of Hospital Development Committee, Fabindra Acharya said there is still uncertainty as to when the building construction will be completed.

'The hospital has obtained approval for 50 beds after its up-gradation. Also, it got approval for necessary health equipment, doctors, health workers and other human resource', he added.

In lack of the building infrastructure, the human resources have not been placed. Service recipients and patients are facing trouble when the hospital building was not constructed timely.
