PALPA: Chief Executive Officer of the National Reconstruction Authority (NRA), Yubaraj Bhusal has said that the local levels will pass the sketch of the houses of the earthquake victims without taking any fees. Speaking at an interaction programme organised by the Authority in Palpa on Saturday, NRA Chief Bhusal asserted that construction materials like stones, gravel, sand and timber would be provided in an easy way to the quake survivors for constructing their houses. Bhusal further said that the task of constructing the houses of the earthquake-affected people has been moved forward under the leadership of the people's local level representatives. He insisted that the NRA has deputed the engineers to the local level for the reconstruction of the houses of earthquake survivors. The engineers assigned to the earthquake affected areas have been sent there after providing 10 days training while the sub-overseers have been assigned after providing them two-day training. NRA chief also said that the local technicians would also be imparted training on construction of earthquake resilient shelters and structures. Likewise, the carpenters and masons will also be given a week-long training on this. On the occasion, Bishnu Prasad Dhakal, Chief District Officer of Palpa district, suggested improving the paper works and the process that the quake survivors have to fulfill for house construction, saying it was cumbersome and time-consuming. Chiefs and the administrative officials of the local levels, representatives of political parties, technicians, office-bearers of the District Coordination Committee and journalists stressed on the need of constructing the houses of the earthquake victims as soon as possible and in an efficient manner.
