KATHMANDU, AUGUST 25

The Kathmandu Metropolitan City (KMC) has announced to continue demolishing structures constructed illegally and by encroaching upon public land.

'It would continue as a campaign. The structures unlawfully built in all 32 wards of KMC would not be left', said Sunil Lamsal, a member of KMC Mayor Balen Shah secretariat.

He further informed that the structures constructed without obtaining official approval and built not in line with the authorized map would be removed.

'KMC would first request the concerned individuals to show documents regarding construction of the structure and further legal process would be adopted if something wrong was evidenced while screening the documents', he shared.

As part of the campaign, KMC had pulled down the illegally-constructed and unauthorized structures in and around Kathmandu Mall in Sundhara on Wednesday.
