Lumbini Technical University Faces Delays in Land Acquisition for Infrastructure Development

Lumbini Technical University, established nearly four years ago, is facing significant delays in acquiring land for its permanent infrastructure, forcing it to operate from rented facilities and incurring substantial annual rental costs. The university's administrative work and academic programs are currently housed in rented buildings, with a process to lease public land in Banke facing ongoing bureaucratic hurdles. The provincial government is working to expedite the land acquisition process.
