Jan 30, 2018-Several government offices in Butwal are struggling to find new office buildings with their old addresses being taken up by provincial government agencies.
After Butwal, the district headquarters of Rupandehi, was designated the temporary capital of Province 5, the buildings hitherto used by Revenue Investigation Department, Educational Training Centre, Women and Children Office, Office of Food Technology and Quality Control, and Department of Transport Management are going to be replaced by provincial government offices. Moving out, however, has proven to be a headache for the sitting tenants. Narendra Pandey, the chief of Revenue Investigation Department, said they have been looking for a suitable building for the past one week, but to no avail. “It is hard to find a proper building in Butwal. Our daily operations have been affected because most of the time our minds are occupied about finding a new place,” he said. The office building of the department has been proposed as the official residence of chief minister. The concerned offices have already been instructed to vacate the buildings. The moving day approaches near and they are still undecided where to set up their operations.
“Finding a suitable building alone will not do. We also have to make sure that they are conveniently located for service seekers,” said Rumlal Puri of the District Labour Office. Chief District Officer Hari Prasad Mainali said they have been on location scouting for weeks on end without much luck so far.
