Hundreds of locals have worked for drinking water at Pakuwakhola in Dharan-20 under the leadership of Dharan Sub-metropolitan Chief Harka Sampang. According to the pre-determined plan, they are assigned to reach the river every Saturday and carry stones to the source of drinking water and make an 'intake'.
Tree planting has also been done in the same area on Saturday. Around 250 different species of fruits and bamboo plants have been planted in the Pakuwakhola area. Lately, there has been a problem with drinking water in Dharan. Mayor Sampang has given high priority to finding sources of drinking water to solve the drinking water shortage. He informed that work is underway to make an intake for the collection of Pakuwakhola water. He has been paying attention to drinking water management since he was elected as the mayor of Swatantra after raising the issue of drinking water.
