Chitwan, November 15 The organiser of Chitwan Festival has finally scrapped the controversial fun park contract. The Himalayan Times, in its November 14 edition had carried news about a contract struck by skirting the tender process. Chamber of Commerce and Industries of Chitwan on June 23 had struck a contract with Rajdhani Amusment Rights Nepal of Kathmandu allowing it to run a fun park during the festival due to start from January 9, next year, for which the company would pay 2.2 million rupees. The decision of the CCI to select a so-and-so company at its whim by avoiding due process had drawn public outcry when the news broke out amidst reservations of co-sponsors and local administration over the selection procedure. Protest against the decision had been vocal, particularly as other companies said they were ready to pay as much as Rs 5 million to buy the rights to run amusement-related activities during the festival, which also gave way to speculations of foul play.
