Belauri Municipality in Kanchanpur has ordered the removal of unauthorized structures built on religious and public land, specifically targeting encroachments on Bhuiyan Mandir land in Ward No. 6, Richhaaha. The municipality has issued a seven-day deadline for the removal of these structures, initiating legal proceedings after complaints of forcible occupation and construction on temple land.

  • The municipality's judicial committee confirmed the encroachment after an on-site inspection, measurement, and demarcation on Poush 16, 2082.
  • A Municipal Executive meeting on Chaitra 23, 2082, decided to proceed with legal processes to clear the encroached land.
  • Chief Administrative Officer Khemraj Joshi stated that despite verbal consultations, encroaching parties have procrastinated and obstructed the temple management committee's work.
  • The municipality cited Section 11 (2) of the Local Government Operation Act, 2074, which assigns local levels the responsibility to protect public and religious land.
  • If structures are not removed within seven days, the municipality plans to demolish them with assistance from the District Administration Office, Kanchanpur.
